Franklinton School Bell

Franklinton's first school bell was cast in 1851 by C. F. Coffin at the Buckeye Bell Foundry in Cincinnati, Ohio.  The Franklinton school building was originally the site of the first Franklin County Court House.  The courthouse served as the school when the court moved in 1824.
