Regarding Hearn-McNeely House. This house spent its first 92 years in Franklin on another
downtown street - Fifth Avenue North. It was going to be torn down to make way for a bank, but the Franklin Heritage Foundation acquired it in 1981 and had it moved to this location on West Main Street, where the historic home that previously occupied this lot had burned.

Included in the Hincheyville Historical District, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
