Do you know of Franklins ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Franklins. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Franklins.<1>

We found mention of Franklins as a community (see Mentions and References below), but haven't been able to determine its location - other than being located somewhere in Lake County, Florida.

Miscellaneous References and Mentions for Franklins ...

We've created the following list to keep track of the sources that proved useful in adding to our knowledge about Franklins:

Published by Rand McNally & Co.

A note taken from the Shipper's Guide for Franklins - Services available: had a Railroad Station, no Post Office mentioned

Can you help?

As we explained above, when we encounter a name that might be a community or a post office we add it to our Gazetteer. If we have little information to go with the name, we call them Orphans. Below are Orphans that we believe to be located in Lake County.
