For instance, what did Ben Franklin sound like?

Not sure about Ben Franklin, but Southern Partisan magazine made a case that George Washington spoke with a Southern drawl, y'all.

I'm certain he had the same accent as his contemporary fellow-Virginians, but isn't Virginia too far north to have a drawl spoken there?
