| Old Glory's post office was established January 15, 1895 and discontinued August 14, 1915. A town of only about fifty residents, Old Glory served many mines on the Arizona-Mexico border around the turn of the century. The town had a justice of the peace, general merchandise store, and more. Today nothing is left of Old Glory except mining remnants. |
