History

One of the earliest mining communities in Williamson County, Crainville is named for James M. Crain, who filed the first plat for the village. It was initially known as “Crain City,” but incorporated as the village of Crainville on June 28, 1881. A post office opened on September 26, 1888, also under the name Crainville. It discontinued operations on January 31, 1914, and the community is now served by the post office at neighboring Carterville.
