Overview

This city of 9,224 inhabitants was founded on March 30, 1871. All that I found about the flag is that it was created by Mr. José [Jose'] Luis Medina Caraballo, historian from Las Marias.
Thanh-Tâm Le, 12 January 1999

It is in west central Puerto Rico. In olden times it was famous because so many men and women were called Maria. An old name for the pueblo was 'Parroquia del Dulce Nombre de Maria'.
