Cencus data is incorrectly shown. Population is 1500, not 19,000
The "supposed name origin" is fairly well regarded as incorrect, Rosthern was originally settled by Ukranians and Russians, neither of whom would have been familiar with Old English.
I disagree with the above. Rosthern was settled by many different ethnic groups, and the English were among them. This explanation is also given in the book "Whats in a Name: the Story Behind Saskatchewan Place Names." Seager Wheeler is a good example of this English presence and diversity, as is the towns many different churches. Germans, Ukrainians, French, Metis, English and Scots could all be found in the area around Rosthern and their descendants still can be today. - Wyldkat 26, September 2007
