Kings Grove, Missouri


Kings Grove, or King Grove
, is an extinct town in northeastern Holt County, in the U.S. state of Missouri.
Kings Grove was settled around 1850 by John B. King, and named for him. A government survey from 1839 denotes this place as Roland's Grove, for the stream Roland's Branch, the most upstream tributary of the Nodaway River in Holt County. A post office called Konoko existed from 1872 to 1873, then King Grove post office was established in 1875, and remained in operation until 1881.
There was a stock farm named Kings Grove at the location until a few decades after the turn of the 20th century.
