Graysville, in northwestern Jefferson County, was called Gin Town in the late 1800s and early 1900s because it had the only cotton gin for miles around, and the community grew around it. It was first incorporated as Graysville in 1897. In the early 1900s the Union Church was established, where people of all denominations worshiped, since it was the only church for miles.
In 1927 the town's charter was revoked for "inactivity." Graysville was incorporated again in November 1945; sources give the date as November 17 or November 27. The new town council first met at the old schoolhouse on January 16, 1946, and set up the Graysville Water Works later that year, followed in 1949 by the Graysville Gas Board, which became the municipal gas system. In the 1950s and 1960s local coal mines and steel mills drew families from all over Alabama, and the city built its first subdivisions. It annexed more land in the 1980s and 1990s, and the opening of Interstate 22 brought new commercial growth.
