Create a field hospital marker program. There are opportunities to highlight the numerous field hospitals that were active during and after the Battle. In the past, flags marking these field hospitals were flown on the anniversary of the Battle of Franklin. A permanent marker/signage program could identify all remaining hospital sites and future interpretation could be enhanced by audio tours. Discreet signage could note buildings without impairing current functions, allowing for interpretation with limited operational impact. Document and interpret Civil War stories for sites undergoing development. Recognizing that not every resource can be saved, threatened sites should be appropriately documented to Historic American Buildings Survey /Historic American Engineering Record/Historic American Landscape Survey standards, if applicable. Documentation could be incorporated into interpretive materials and publications, to support an expanded and more comprehensive study of Civil War related narratives. It will also greatly assist future research and interpretation. THEME: PRESERVING CIVIL WAR RESOURCES 134 FRANKLIN, TN | PRESERVATION PLAN
