Travel Back In Time

fRANKLIN, VA

Pictures and writings stored in a museum will not likely be seen by many people. Putting them in the cloud via the internet makes them readily available on your computer, or even on your cell phone to enjoy at your leisure. This website has just begun. The contents thus far have simply been scanned into the site, some with explanation, others awaiting such.

Maybe you have a great picture to offer, or a story to tell about Franklin? Click on the “Share Your Story” or “Share Your Pictures” links that you will find on this site, and follow the instructions to share your treasured memories of the people and places that make Franklin such a wonderful town to live in. As time permits, the site will contain chapters detailing the very early history of Franklin; our churches, schools, old businesses, old buildings, including our beautiful homes, and the people and the organizations that have helped to build Franklin. The Franklin Community Wall of Excellence at Franklin High School will be included, which recognizes those Franklin citizens who have made significant contributions in their chosen fields.

As you peruse the wonderful treasures presented here, please feel free to “Like” the pictures and stories, leave your comments for others to read, and share, with your family and friends, on your favorite social media. Thank you for joining us in this celebration of this city we love so much.

Franklin was and still is a very special place.  This website will show this to be true!
