[Roscoe]

In 1896 the name of the community was changed to "Roscoe. " (Presumably Roscoe Blvd. got its name because it went to Roscoe.) There is speculation that the name for the community came from a railroad employee by the name of Roscoe, who was killed in a train wreck during a train robbery near Sunland Blvd. and San Fernando Road. It has also been suggested that the name was for the famous actor, Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, after he had made movies on location in the area.
