Roslyn, Pennsylvania
Unincorporated community in Pennsylvania, US
About
Roslyn is an unincorporated community and census-designated place in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is mostly in Abington Township, and extends into Upper Dublin Township as of 2020. Originally called Hillside, the name Roslyn came from rose gardens that once grew there.
The first known person of European descent to settle the area was John Tyson, who bought a tract of land here in 1717. He built lime kilns to turn the abundant local limestone into quicklime, starting an industry that operated into the late 20th century.
