Johnson County was established in 1823. It was named for John Johnson, a judge of the Indiana Supreme Court.

In the 1920's a high school basketball team from Franklin, IN would catch the country by surprise by winning three consecutive state championships.

They followed their coach to Franklin College where they won the national championship first year out. It wasn't until 1924 they had their 50 game winning streak broken by Butler University.

They had even beaten a professional basketball team from Detroit not once, but twice.

The Detroit Free Press wrote: "Not only has this team been the best Franklin College ever had, but it is considered as the best collegiate team ever seen in Hoosierdom, the basketball center of the world."
