Burial list of Franklin Cemetery transcribed and submitted 
by Scot Stout, April 2001. Both above notices must remain 
when copied or downloaded.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
I enumerated franklin cemetery in southeastern king county Monday, April 22.  
There were only nine stones that i found.
The cemetery is accessed via a one-mile hike on private property which
belongs to Palmer Coking Coal.  Permission must be gained from the sales
office, located in Black Diamond, before accessing the cemetery.  Bill, in
the sales office, supplied me with a map and directions.  it is located
approximately 1-1/2 miles east of Black Diamond.

I took a photo of each tombstone. The number in each filename corresponds 
with each numbered tombstone below.  If possible, you may post these photos and the
tombstone list on the usgenweb tombstone project pages for King County.
