*These Franklin and Collie folks listed above are early settlers here. In that time of our nation tombstones were rarely used or in a few cases the tombstones have been lost. There were many cases of burials on the individual farms without headstones therefore it is not a given that the Franklins are interred in this cemetery, but they were in this neighborhood so that is the important point. These listings are from special research and were developed by someone who was a member of the Franklin family who then added these on Findagrave.com where you can view them out there.
