Like RockRon says, they were thought to carry a blight that effected pines and other evergreens. The WPA and the CCC boys attempted to eradicate both gooseberries and currants back in the 30's and 40's. We had a currant bush back on the farm when I was a kid and my mom made currant jelly every year. There were a few gooseberry bushes down the "lane" where we used to bring the cows in from pasture and my brother and I really enjoyed the few we got. I discovered a very small gooseberry bush next to the stonewall by my new house and I have gotten a few berries off it. I thought it had "bit the dust" last year but I see it looks pretty healthy again this year. Try them, you'll like them.

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
