Duncrief Ghost Town was established in 1835 when the first mill was built. The post office started in 1863 prompting other businesses to start up which included a blacksmith shop, a wagon shop and a general store. In the 1880s, a Methodist church and a school were built.  The settlers had clearcut the trees around the mill which caused flooding. The flooding washed away the mills as the community kept rebuilding them. The last mill was taken out by a fire in 1895. The post office had finally closed its doors in 1910 and officially closed in 1913. This town of 100 people has been a ghost town since.
