KINGS
Kings was listed as a post office from 1855-1860 in the List Of Abandoned Towns by David Mott published in the Annals of Iowa – 1929. Mott said no location for Kings was found but other references placed it in Section 22 of Jones Township and report that it was replaced by the Patriot Post Office.
The Kings Post Office was in existence such a short period of time that the exact location of Kings has not been found on any map. At the time, a post office was was often placed in a persons residence and if the postmaster changed his place of residence, the post office location could also change.
The red dotted line, outlines section 22. If the Post Office of Kings was located in that section, it was most likely in the southern half as that is where the roads were.
