Grafton
Grafton is two miles West of Rockville, Utah and 1/4 mile south of the Virgin River.
Grafton had a problem with recurring serious flooding. Grafton became a ghost town in 1921.
There is a cemetery on the outskirts of
the old town where you can read a little history and view the names of the
people who tried to make a new home in the path of the virgin river.
Vandalism had destroyed most of the abandoned structures.
Preservation of the old buildings is now under way.
On your way to Zion
National Park it is fun to stop and visit this quaint little
ghost town.
