The settlement at its mouth was likewise called Venango, and is the site of present-day Franklin, Pennsylvania . Venango County was home to an oil boom in the years following discovery of natural oil in the mid 1850s. George Bissell , a Yale University Chemistry professor, and Edwin L. Drake , a former railroad conductor, made the first successful use of a drilling rig on August 28, 1859 near Titusville, Pennsylvania . This single well soon exceeded the entire cumulative oil output of Europe since the 1650s. Within weeks oil derricks were erected all over the area. Other oil boom towns located in Venango County included Franklin, Oil City, and the now defunct Pithole City The principal product of the oil was kerosene .
