About Grant Town

Grant Town is a town in Marion County, West Virginia, in the eastern United States. The 2020 census counted 690 residents. The town was formed in 1901 with the opening of the Federal Coal and Coke Company bituminous coal mine, and was named for Robert Grant, vice president of the coal company. The "Federal No. 1" mine remained open for the next 84 years until its closure in 1985. Grant Town makes sense once you see how its past, landscape, and current gathering spots overlap. The useful thing to know about Grant Town is that its older landmarks and current settings belong to one connected place.
