Currently there is Franklin Township which is North of Hancock, but south the Calumet. It is pretty close to Boston Location. I also believe it received its name from Franklin Mine.

Maria's old headstone was still there, but I think Uncle Jack Lepisto had bought new headstones for them at some time. I don't remember what part it was in, but it's not that big of a place. They were near your g-grandparent's gravesite. Was the old house, which was kind of high up, on the right side coming into Winona? It had a big enclosed porch facing the road? Yes, now I remember, it was Myrtle that we had met. Maybe we could meet this summer since we are cousins (don't ask me how many times removed) and exchange pictures and information? I don't remember a Henry, but like I said, I don't have my records with me and it was quite some time ago that I did this research.
