Govan is an unincorporated community in Lincoln County, in US state of Washington. Govan was founded as a ranching community which was slowly abandoned as farming in the area decreased. Today an abandoned school house and post office along with a few houses (both abandoned and occupied) are all that remain. It is considered a ghost town.[1]47°44′20″N 118°49′23″W / 47.73889°N 118.82306°W / 47.73889; -118.82306
