It was first platted in 1889, the land was donated by Wenzel Vetter, and an additional half acre was purchased in the 1980's form Mr. And Mrs. Earl Acheson. It was first called the Vetter's Cemetery as Mr. Vetter who donated the land was one of the first to be buried there. The name was later changed to Franklin because it was located in Franklin Township, the Franklin Cemetery Association was organized in 1937. In 1941 V. G. Tuttle, who did the WPA records for this cemetery, reported that the cemetery was in good shape and had a good fence. The cemetery association was taking good care of the cemetery. There were three veterans in 1941 and many more today. Several of the graves were moved from farmsteads in the area. One baby, child of Loren and Elizabeth Coon, was buried a half mile west of the cemetery. In 1985 there was still a small white wooden cross and a picket fence around this grave. The cemetery is still being used today.
