Owned by the German-American mining company, Germa was founded in 1896 as gold was discovered just south of Oatman. The post office was established January 20, 1903 and discontinued February 27, 1906. There was insufficient water to run the mill and the mine closed down in 1906. Today, only a few foundations mark the site.
