Hinckley is a town in Millard County, Utah, United States, in the middle of the Sevier Desert.

The area was part of the Latter Day Saints Deseret Ward until 1891 when that ward was split and the area now known as Hinckley was made the Hinckley Ward, named after Ira N. Hinckley.[3] Thomas George Theobald surveyed the town and divided it into 14 blocks of 5 acres each.
