Though Kingston probably will never regain prominence among her northwest Georgia sister cities, people are once again finding their way to her streets. The Woman's History Club has an impressive new addition to their history museum, and Morrell's Corner Cafe serves down-home southern specialties daily. There's a fully stocked grocery in one of the renovated downtown buildings, and Kingston Military Antiques attracts collectors every weekend. Just a few miles from the Kingston stagecoach stop Godfrey Barnsley made 160 years ago, a resort destination has emerged which bears his name. And in 1997, that springtime super social, the Atlanta Steeplechase, moved to a newly developed course called Kingston Downs.
