Hiram T FRANKLIN ¹

   Another name for Hiram was Chaim.

  General Notes:

I finally managed to sort out the various photos of Isaac's children. This one would appear to be of Hiram. According to Robert Franklin, Hiram was a multi-talented individual who sang, danced, and played various musical instruments. It is a true shame that he died so young.

  Research Notes:

Hiram's mother is recorded on his death certificate as "Annie Franklin," who was, of course, his father's second wife and not his mother at all.
