Stoval (Populated Place), Yuma County, Arizona (32.7650478, -113.6221416)
History: Originally identified in 1869 as Grinnell Station.  In 1875 it was Stanwix, then Texas Hill.  The next name was Christvale and from 1892 to about 1911 the name became Chrystoval (var-Crystoval).  In 1911, the name was shortened to Stoval.  Grinnell Station was named for its first station keeper, Henry Grinnell.  Texas Hill came about because a party of Texas emigrants were supposedly killed at the hill.  Oscar F. Thornton started a farmers' colony circa 1882.  He named a fertile farming section Christvale and later became the first postmaster of Christvale.  The railroad shortened the name to Stoval to facilitate telegraphing (AZ-T101).
