The Right Reverend Charles Chapman Grafton (b. 1830 - d. 1912) was the second Bishop of the Diocese of Fond du Lac in The Episcopal Church. He was a supporter of the Oxford Movement, an affiliation of High Church Anglicans that lead to Anglo-Catholicism in The Episcopal Church. Prior to his election as bishop, Grafton was Rector of Church of the Advent in Boston.
Grafton was consecrated on December 15, 1875 at St. Paul's Cathedral, Fond du Lac by William E. McLaren of Chicago, Alexander Burgess of Quincy, and George F. Seymour of Springfield. Grafton founded the Anglican religious order Sisterhood of the Holy Nativity.
