Wonder if it's named after where I live. Roxburghshire Scotland.

Close, looks like it was likely named after somewhere in Ireland:

>Henry S. Persse acquired land from homesteader Edward McKenzie Griffith. Persse probably renamed the area “Roxborough” after the part of Ireland from which his family had emigrated.
