The History of Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin lived in London at 36 Craven Street for almost 20 years leading up to the signing of that fabled Declaration of Independence. In 1998, a preservation group decided to make some innovations to the four-story townhouse. They discovered over 1200 pieces of human bones hidden inside and believe five of the skeletons came from children. Bones were disturbed and damaged, showing limbs that have been cut or completely hewn through.
