About Rosanky
Rosanky is an unincorporated community of 1,473 residents (2020 census — its first appearance as a Census Designated Place) in southern Bastrop County, located on Farm to Market Road 535 approximately 15 miles south of Bastrop and about 45 miles southeast of Austin. The community sits at an elevation of roughly 500 feet in the rolling post-oak and blackland prairie terrain of southern Bastrop County.
The community was originally known as Snake Prairie. A school was established there in 1868 and a post office followed in 1871 with Mrs. S. C. Hutchinson as postmistress. The post office was renamed Eagle Branch in 1884, discontinued in 1889, and reopened in 1893 as Rosanky — named for Ed Rosanky, a member of a pioneer Prussian family that emigrated and settled in the area in 1854. Ed Rosanky donated land for a railroad station and built a store in the early 1890s, catalyzing the community's growth.
The TSHA Handbook describes Rosanky as settled and developed largely by people of German extraction. By 1896 the community had approximately 100 residents, three churches, three general stores, a corn mill and gin, a cotton gin, and a blacksmith shop. Oil-testing operations arrived in the 1920s. The population has grown from roughly 210 in 1990 to 1,473 in 2020. Real estate around Rosanky consists primarily of ranch land, rural acreage, and homesteads on the rolling terrain between Bastrop and Smithville.
