Franklin Township Historical Society met on February 18, 2017 at 9 AM at the Township Building.  We discussed preparation for Franklin Township’s 200th birthday celebration in 2018.   Another planning meeting is scheduled for February 28, 2017 at 6 PM at the Community Building.  Everyone is welcome to attend.

The old Grange Hall is now up for sale.  It is still in repairable condition.  This building was the second church built in Felicity.  The church was started by John Rankin and his son.  This building was also part of the Underground Railroad.   We would like to see this building preserved if possible.  For more information on this group or to help with organizing the Franklin Township’s 200th Birthday celebration or to help save the old Grange Building please contact Jim Shafer at 513-673-3253.  We are also still looking for old photos of the area for our next publication.  If you have any photos please contact Linda Poe  513-843-4710.  Thanks for your assistance.
