FRANKLIN, Tenn. (WTVF) â One Franklin Church is celebrating 150 years of history and contributions to the community.
St. Paul's Episcopal Church on West Main Street has seen a lot of changes. The church was actually founded in 1827 but, closed during the Civil War and was used as barracks by Federal troops, even a hospital. At one point it served as a stable, before Reverend Edward Bradley from Memphis brought it back to life in 1871.
