About Franklin Forge, Pennsylvania

Franklin Forge is a community of 14 people in Woodbury Township, Blair County, set where Piney Creek flows into the Frankstown Branch of the Juniata River, 2 miles west of Williamsburg. Samuel Royer built the Franklin forge here about 1830. It gave work to twenty-five men and stayed in operation until 1861, when it shut down.

  • Where two railroads metIn 1873 the Pennsylvania Railroad built a branch line from Williamsburg junction, near Hollidaysburg, out to Williamsburg, fourteen miles away. At Franklin Forge it crossed the Springfield branch, which ran nine miles by way of Wertz, Royer and Morrell to the iron ore mines. By 1911 the Williamsburg branch had been extended and was known as the Petersburg branch.
  • Where Piney Creek endsPiney Creek, a small stream, rises in the southern end of Blair County and runs north to join the Juniata at Franklin Forge. The creek forms the community's northwestern edge, just upstream from where it meets the river at Ganister.
  • Counted in 2020The Census Bureau first listed Franklin Forge as a census-designated place before the 2020 census, which found 14 people living here. The community sits 11 miles by road northeast of Hollidaysburg, and its children attend the Williamsburg Community School District.
