Grafton Cemetery

While in St. George, Clarine, Diane and I visited the old settlement of Grafton. Grafton is accross the Virgin River south of Rockville a current modern town near Zion's National Park.  No one lives there now, but there are still some structures there.  Some have been restored.  At the cemetery , Diane used my camera and snapped a few pics.  Rather than waste the pics, I have posted them here in a blog.  Some of those buried are native Americans..  A few of the graves are quite well kept.  The roads to Grafton and the cemetery are a bit primirive in some places.  Some of the restored structures have been used in movies such as "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid."  This is just an interesting sidelight to our trip to St. George made last week.  gwh
