Franklin State of Franklin Tale Recalled in Tennessee History
A historical sketch recounts the short lived state of Franklin, its 1784 to 1788 attempt to join the Union, the conflict between Col. John Sevier and Col. Josiah Tipton, the 1785 clash near Jaraboro, and the factional politics that ended with Franklin's defeat and absorption by North Carolina and later state formation efforts. It notes settlers, notable figures, and the dramatic feud that shaped the region's path to statehood.
