Franklin J. Sawtelle (1846-1911) was an American architect practicing in Providence, Rhode Island. He was known primarily as an designer of private residences. Sawtelle was born in 1846 in the town of Norridgewock, Maine. He was educated in the local schools, and as a teenager began his architectural studies in the Portland office of Francis H. Fassett. In 1873 he relocated to Providence, taking a job with Stone & Carpenter. After seven years, in 1880, he opened his own office. He practiced alone for his entire career, except for 1901 and 1902, when his firm was Sawtelle, Robertson & Shurrocks.〔"Franklin J. Sawtelle, F. A. I. A.". ''American Institute of Architects Quarterly Bulletin'' 1911: 48.〕 The other two partners were Wayland T. Robertson and Alfred F. Shurrocks. Sawtelle died in 1911, while engaged on the commission for the Wheeler School.〔Woodward, Wm. McKenzie. ''Providence: A Citywide Survey of Historic Resources''. 1986.〕 The structure as built was designed by Sawtelle's assistant, Frances E. Henley, who established her own office after Sawtelle's death. Sawtelle was actively involved in the local chapter of the AIA. He joined in 1885, and between then and his death served in several different official capacities.〔 ==Architectural Works== Private practice, 1880-1901: * James Street School, 75 James St., East Providence, RI (1882) - Demolished c.2004.〔''East Providence, Rhode Island: Statewide Preservation Report P-EP-1''. 1976.〕 * Mary C.
