Known as the City of Royal Treatment, Kingsland is named for William Henry King, one of the largest landowners in southeastern Georgia in the late 1800s. On Christmas Day in 1893, the first passenger train of the Florida Central & Peninsular Railroad passed through King's property, which the railroad company called King's Land. As the railroad began to push its way southward through the plantation, King envisioned a town and set out to divide his land into a well-planned city. The center of it was the crossing of King Street and the railroad, with the city limits extending in a half-mile circle. As the railroad advanced, people began to build in and around King's Land, setting a new era in motion. Located at the center of Camden County between the cities of St. Marys and Woodbine, Kingsland has become a lovely town proud of its small-town atmosphere and city amenities. This book presents Kingsland's evolution from its founding in 1908 through the celebration of its centennial and nomination to Lovetown USA in 2012.
