The Story

Among the family's notable figures was Dr. William Franklin Goldin, born in Haralson County in 1851, who graduated from Atlanta Medical College in 1877 and established his medical practice in Draketown. The cemetery is documented in the Haralson County Historical Society's survey of the county's burial grounds.
