In 1998, during an excavation under Franklin's former home at 36 Craven Street near Trafalgar Square in London, the remains of ten bodies (six of them children) were discovered. It has been proposed that Franklin and his house mate may have been acquiring bodies for medical research and not for occult purposes. In either case, no trace of LeMarchand's "most colorful creation" was ever found among Franklin's estate.

In 1998 excavations revealed over 1200 cut and trepanned bones, apparently discarded following student dissections. The bones are now being catalogued by the University College London's Institute of Archaeology and provide information about the history of surgery.
