Your spelling is closer than many other attempts.  The parish name is 
Roszyszcze and may have other variant spellings.

What is the source of your information?  We do not have a Marcelinhof 
in our list of villages but there is a Marcelindorf, alternately 
known as Wolka.  It is roughly 10 km E of Derazno, on the south side 
of the Horyn River.  I believe there was a bridge crossing the river 
at this location.  It seems to fit within the region of the other 
group of villages you posted last week.
