Town Clerk and Historical Commission Chair, Debbie Pellegri introduced Eamon Earls.
| Debbie Pellegri introduces Eamon Earls |
Eamon referenced key points on an early map of Franklin including the fact that at one time, Dorchester was a neighboring community. Yes, the same Dorchester. It used to extend from the coast far inland and then communities split off from it and it shrunk to its current size.
| Eamon Earls points to one of the maps |
Eamon spent a couple of years researching and writing the book. He has many stories to tell and if you have good history to share, he would like to hear that too!
| Eamon talking about Franklin as an 'edge city' |
The book can be purchased online or at various locations around Franklin
