1947 Map of Franklin
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Franklin serves as the focal point of this 1940s landscape, featuring prominent local institutions like Franklin College, the Masonic Home, and the Johnson County Memorial Hospital. The transition from the developed town to the rural outskirts is marked by the presence of the Franklin Airfield and the Sewage Disposal works along Youngs Creek. To the south, the landscape is heavily influenced by the sprawling Camp Atterbury Military Reservation, which includes specific wartime infrastructure such as Wakeman Hospital and a Prisoner of War Camp.
