James Franklin b. 1825 Indiana d. 1878 Illinois
If you have seen a 1850 or 1860 census listing James please contact me. On the 1870 census he is in Christian County, Illinois. He is living with the family of William Benjamin Franklin who is deceased.I believe he may be a brother of William Benjamin Franklin who was also born in Indiana. I need the other two census to learn more. We have been told that William Benjamin Franklin's parents died while he was young.William Benjamin Franklin was bonded out to a man named Case. James Franklin died at the poor house in Christian County, Illinois. If you have more
information concerning the above two men please post.
