10102 Place name:
Boone Township
Description:
This township occupies the southwest part of Franklin County. It is bounded on the south by Crawford County, on the west by Gasconade County, on the north by Lyon Township, and on the east by Union and Meramec Townships. It was organized on February 7, 1832, out of the western part of what had been Meramec Township, and took its name from its principal stream Boone Creek, which had been named for Daniel Boone. Ten years later, on February 12, 1842, there was a demand by some citizens of Boone Township for a further subdivision because, they said, it was inconvenient to reach voting places and also because there were enough householders to justify a new township. It was accordingly organized on that date under the name of Linn Township; but on May 3 of the same year the action was rescinded and Linn was receded to Boone Township. The short-lived township took its name from the popular Senator Linn, whose name is also commemorated by Linn County, served in the Upper House from 1833 until his death, and was a conspicuous and popular member.

Franklin County
Description:
A large county, bounded on the north by the Missouri River, on the northeast by St. Louis County, on the southeast by Jefferson County, on the south by Washington and Crawford Counties, and on the west by Gasconade County. It was organized on December 11, 1818, and thus separated from St. Louis County, of which it had previously formed a part. The area of Franklin County at first included large regions on the west and south. These areas are now outside the county. On November 25, 1820, Gasconade County, which then included much of Osage County, was formed from Franklin County. By subsequent changes including the formation of Crawford County, Franklin County was reduced to its present area of 866 square miles. The earliest record of American settlement in the county is that of William Hughes, who located on Du Bois Creek, not far from the site of the present Washington, in 1794. This was the extreme frontier of the time. One of the first American settlers was Kincaid Caldwell, who came to Franklin County in 1803. The earliest entry of land in the county was made by Samuel Cantley on July 13, 1818. Franklin County was named in honor of Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), the Philadelphia printer, inventor, philosopher, diplomat, and statesman. Americans have always been delighted to honor him in their choice of place names; there are more than twenty Franklin Counties in other states, and over fifty other places named for him.

A post office in the western part of Boone Township. It was established in 1895 and discontinued in 1910. Ulrich K. Baur, a merchant, was its first postmaster.
