Question: What unincorporated community in Stonewall County changed its name during World War I in a display of patriotism?
Answer: Old Glory. The community was founded in the 1880s and became known as Bradenburg in the 1900s when a group of German families settled in the area. During World War I, residents changed the name of the town to Old Glory, seeking to distance themselves from the country’s European opponents in the conflict. The town’s population peaked at 275 in 1929. Today, it is home to fewer than 100 residents.
