The 1st Franklin and Keeter Family Reunion


Looking forward to our 1st Franklin and Keeter reunion on Friday, August 10 2012, at the Cowpens Calvary Baptist Church "Franklin Fellowship Hall"

Grandpa Franklin (Charles Clinton Franklin) is pictured at left - this portrait was done in the early 1950's after he died and hung on the wall at Grandma's house until after she died in 1980.  My dad had the portrait painted so since he would not take it off the wall and to his house, he allowed me to take them to my house.  I proudly display this alongside my dad's portrait at my home! 




Grandma Franklin (Mattie Belle Keeter Franklin) is pictured below, probably taken in the 1950's. Grandma lived to be 91 years old.  We are trying to do research on her family history as well, but not having any luck.
