FRANKLIN

   Franklin township was once a part of Manitowoc REapids, of Maple Grove, of
the original Franklin township made up of Franklin and Cato, and finally in 1857
the present-sized township. During these changes from one township to another,
school districts were organized in these territories. Prior to 1857, there were
only four school districts set up in the present Franklin area. They were:
Franklin 6 (now Franklin 1 and Jt. 2), Franklin 8 (now Franklin Jt. 8, Jt. 6,
and Jt. 9), Franklin 13 (now Franklin Jt. 3 and 13), and Franklin 14 (now
Franklin 4 and Jt. 14). Cato Jt. 7 also consisted of a part of the Franklin
area. See Cato introduction for an explanation of the missing district numbers.
After Franklin became a township by itself, new school districts were organized
and numbered from number 1 up and to fill in missing district numbers, but not
always in the order of their organization. The missing district number 5 is
unexplained after much research.
