Graysville is an unincorporated community in south central Manitoba, Canada. It is located approximately 11 kilometers (7 miles) west of Carman, Manitoba[1] in the Rural Municipality of Dufferin.
The Post Office was opened in 1904 on the farm of George Gray where a town site had developed. There was a Gray, Saskatchewan so the name Graysville became the mail name. The community had been known as Grays. The railway point and the school district also assumed the name.
