FRANKLIN CEMETERY
[Also known as FRANKLIN-UNION CEMETERY]
EWING TOWNSHIP - WHITTINGTON, IL

History: The cemetery originated with a donation of land from Jasper and Jane Cypher and Nancy E. and Isaac House on December 23, 1880. Jasper and Eunice Cypher donated additional land on April 23, 1926. The first known burial in the cemetery was in 1825. Records for burials were destroyed by fire several years ago. In addition, some of the markers have been destroyed by mowing or removed by vandals, especially in the older section. This listing was compiled from present monuments in the cemetery; interviews with relatives buried at Franklin, and published information

Directions: Beginning at the Franklin County Courthouse, located on the Public Square in Benton, Illinois, take Route 37 North 3.8 miles to Marcum Branch Road (left turn). Follow Marcum Branch Road 0.4 mile, and turn right on Gun Creek Trail for 1 mile. Turn left down the lane which leads to the cemetery.

Franklin Cemetery is administered by the Ewing Township Cemetery Association, Whittington, IL.
