Dos Cabezas's post office was established April 8, 1879 and discontinued January 31, 1960. First settled in 1878, the town had a barbar shop, a brewery, a general store, brick yard, hotel, blacksmith, and about 300 people. The mines were worked at a snails pace over the next 80 years and the town finally lost its post office in 1960. Today the ruins can be seen right off the highway on AZ 186 south of Willcox.
