Franklin County, Alabama
.Franklin County, located in the northwest region of the great state of Alabama, has a rich history dating back to its creation on February 6, 1818. The county was named in honor of Benjamin Franklin, the renowned inventor, writer, and statesman. Franklin County originally encompassed parts of what is now Colbert and Lauderdale Counties, and the first county seat was established in Russellville.
The area played a role as a significant crossroad for Native Americans, settlers, and traders who utilized the Tennessee River, the Natchez Trace (which passes through the county), and other routes to travel across the region. During the early 1800s, the land was inhabited by Cherokee and Chickasaw tribes. These Native Americans were eventually relocated during the Trail of Tears, which many passed through Franklin County in the 1830s.
Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, Franklin County experienced growth and development, with a strong reliance on agriculture as its primary industry. Cotton farming was the backbone of the local economy until the arrival of the textile and apparel industries in the 20th century. The county also saw significant transportation upgrades in the form of railroad and highway construction, supporting further economic growth.
One interesting fact about Franklin County is the presence of the Dismals Canyon, a breathtaking sandstone gorge that features a 1.5-mile boardwalk and unique, bioluminescent glowworms called Dismalites. These fascinating insects can be found nowhere else in North America, attracting tourists and nature enthusiasts to Franklin County.
