Grafton UT

Grafton UT, a ghost town

Grafton is a ghost town, just south of Zion National Park in Washington County, Utah, United States. Said to be the most photographed ghost town in the West, it has been featured as a location in several films, including 1929's In Old Arizona—the first talkie filmed outdoors—and the classic Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. The nearest inhabited town is Rockville.

The Alonzo H. Russell Home circa 1862. Alonzo Haventon Russell built this adobe home around 1862 and lived here until 1910. Following Alonzo's death in 1910, his son Frank bought the hose for $200 and a cow. The home's last residents moved to St. George in 1945. This house was in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. It was Etta's home and is the house Butch rode a bicycle in front of it.
