The Historical Downtown Kinsley Digital Map is the result of a community collaboration to build the application and to compile the data. It is an ongoing research project. Every effort has been made to make it as accurate as possible. However, like all historical research, this map may have unknown data or contain errors or omissions. You are encouraged to send suspected errors and additional information or pictures of a particular building or business to the Kinsley Library for verification and addition to the map. E-mail suggestions to director@kinsleylibrary.info.
Additional business areas are planned for this site in the future. Contact the Kinsley Library if you would like to contribute to information, images or research.
