• Rosenberg is within the limits of the Mexican land grant to Stephen F. Austin, and was an unnamed shipping point on the Brazos River in the 1830s.Henry von Rosenberg migrated from Switzerland to the United States in 1843. His early ancestors were from Bohemia. He was born June 22, 1824 and died May 12, 1893. He was a very wealthy man dealing in railroading, banking and wharfs. Mr. Rosenberg was the first president of the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Railroad. In 1873, a Galveston group led by Henry von Rosenberg, the Sealy brothers and others, made plans to build the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railroad in order to circumvent the Houston route. It was intended that the railroad extend all the way to Temple, Texas. In 1881, Count Joseph Telfener, an Italian, moved to Rosenberg to begin work on the New York, Texas and Mexican Railway, leading to Victoria. It was soon known as the Macaroni Line because of the Italians who laid the tracks. In 1882, the New York, Texas, and Mexican Railroad, began the Macaroni Line making Rosenberg the junction of the Santa Fe, Southern Pacific & Southern Pacific's Victoria Division Railroads. The town boomed, with nearby ranches and plantations sending cattle and cotton for shipments daily. Rosenberg soon became known as the Hub of the Gulf Coast. ..
