Drumheller is an extinct town in Franklin County, in the U.S. state of Washington.
A post office called Drumheller was established in 1906 and remained in operation until 1909.[1] The community was named after Sam Drumheller, a local settler.[2] A school is shown at the same location on maps published as late as 1963.[3]
