Crown Point's history is intertwined with then governor of Arizona Territory, Alexander O. Brodie. The mines were started in the late 1890's complete with a mill and a town of about 100. Brodie left to enlist with Roosevelt's Rough Riders but funded the operation until 1905. Today, at the end of Constellation road, are tailings and what is left of one building.
