History
Originally known as Cockletown, the area became known as Grafton due to a church in that area. That church was established by a pastor from Grafton, Massachusetts, John Leland,[1] who put forth his hometown's name for consideration; the name was adopted in 1783 by the church. The entire town would be known by that name by 1872 when the post office there was established.[2]
