GREENVILLE

Greenville (Beaver) is four and one-half miles southwest of Beaver on U-21. In 1860 a group, including Samuel Edwards, and their families, came from Parowan and Cedar City to settle there. Three years before this time, they had come to cut grass for winter hay. The community is named for the lush growth of pasture and meadow grass in the region.
