My grandfather was the son of Maurice Clay Franklin and Nola Blanche Wagner. His paternal grandparents were Grant Franklin and Anna L. Batson and his aunt was Agnes Ann Franklin Barnes. His maternal grandparents were Charles Martin Wagner and Fannie Preston. Married to Virginia Naomi Bowers in 1933. He had 2 daughters, Audrey Virginia and Charlotte Ann. He was a painter and a volunteer fire fighter for Glen Burnie Maryland. He became an unofficial police officer in Glen Burnie Maryland when one day during the exit of church goers at Glen Burnie Methodist Church the traffic was so bad that he got out and started directing traffic. The church ended up paying him to direct traffic on Sundays. Fraternal twin to Maurice Holmes Franklin.
