Music - (Some of these are a stretch, but I really could not dedicate much more time to these resource I could not make / find relevant to my project)

This site offers several podcasts associated with the Civil War. Many are told by historians of the time (which is not primary), but they do include authentic music from the time period that would be beneficial to my project and be considered primary.

The township supervisor have their meetings recorded and could very well be used as an example of current trends and issues in modern day Franklin County.

[] This Library of Congress site provides music and music history from the time of the Civil War. The Civil War with its proximity and impact of Franklin County is valuable resource site.

[] This site provides hundreds of podcasts dealing with various parts of Pennsylvania. The topics range from economy, sports, politics, to views on war and religion.

[] The Appalachian Trail goes through the eastern part of the county and through the Michaux Forest. This forest part of the county is a significant part of the county. This video provides a valuable aspect of the landscape of the region.

[] This is an older map of the county with the founder of each of the townships and boroughs as well as the year they were established. The thing I liked about this map is the area of significance is marked as well (ex. Enoch Brown Massacre).

[] This map shows the wide distribution of farm values throughout the county. Franklin had higher land values than Augusta, but the wealth was spread out thoroughly in the county.
