St John`s Church Roll of HonourPrint Page 
The wooden honour roll commemorates those connected with the church who served in World War Two.
Note: St John`s Church was deconsecrated in August 2014. Friends of St Johns Franklin Inc. is a not for profit group that was formed in 2015. The current most important aim of the group, is to negotiate with the Anglican Diocese of Tasmania - which owns the property- and work towards keeping St John's Church and cemetery in community ownership. The property was donated to the people of Franklin, by Lady Jane Franklin, and the church was built in 1864 with money raised by pioneer settlers. Many of the headstones in the cemetery date back to the mid 1800s.
Friends of St Johns Inc members organise fund raising activities to raise money which they intend to put towards the community purchase of this important icon of Franklin's community heritage.
Note: This church was on a list of Anglican Church properties for sale in 2018.
