Clarkston is noted for being the last home of Martin Harris, one of the Three Witnesses of the Book of Mormon. He is buried in Clarkston and every other year a pageant commemorates his life.
The townsite of Clarkston was laid out in 1864. It was named for Israel J. Clark, who was an early settler and the first branch president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Clarkston.
