}}Franklin County is a county located in the U.S. state of Georgia. As of the 2010 census, the population was 22,084.[1] The county seat is Carnesville.[2] On February 25, 1784 Franklin and Washington became Georgia's eighth and ninth counties,[3] with Franklin named in honor of patriot Benjamin Franklin.[4]

In its original form, Franklin County included all of the territory now in Banks, Barrow, Clarke, Jackson, Oconee, and Stephens counties, and parts of the modern-day Gwinnett, Hall, Hart, and Madison counties, as well as three counties that are now part of South Carolina.

Economic development

The Franklin County Industrial Building Authority, one of only seven created by a Georgia constitutional amendment,[5] actively seeks and recruits new industries to the county. The Authority consists of seven members: each of the five mayors from the cities within Franklin County, and two at-large members selected by the Board of Commissioners.[6]

Geography

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the county has a total area of {{convert|266|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|261|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|5.0|sqmi}} (1.9%) is water.[7]

The majority of Franklin County is located in the Broad River sub-basin of the Savannah River basin, with just the northeastern corner, north of Lavonia, located in the Tugaloo River sub-basin of the same Savannah River basin.[8]
