Graham County was created from southern Apache County and eastern Pima County on March 10, 1881. Initially, the county seat was located in the city of Safford but was later moved to Solomonville in 1883. This change was undone in 1915, returning the county seat to Safford. Graham County is named after the mountain by the same name which was named after Lt. Col James Duncan Graham. The county is 4,641 square miles and in 2022 it had a population 38,500. Graham County contains part of the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation, yet it was the first Arizona county to break the tradition of naming counties for Native Americans.

I am bound to them though I cannot look into their eyes or hear their voices. I honor their history. I cherish their lives. I will tell their story. I will remember them for I am the result of the very love, struggle, sacrifice and journey of thousands."
