Dad (Paul Russell) tells us he remembers "Grandpa Bill" well, as he came
to live with Joseph Henry Franklin's family in Bloomington, Illinois, just
prior to "the War" (WWII).
They were then living on (what is now) West Market Street/Rt. 9,
abt. 4 miles west of town (or what is now known as the I-74 junction)
Before spending his last year or so of life with his son and grandchildren,
William Andrew Franklin had lived in Clinton, Illinois, with his wife (Grandma Lula May).
It was shortly after Lula May's death (sometime before 1941?) that Grandpa Bill
moved from Clinton to live with his son's family.
