• Bob Lynch — Kingsville's History
    Jan 22 2026

    James Joyce said Dublin could be rebuilt from Ulysses. If Kingsville vanished, Bob Lynch’s stories could rebuild it entirely.

    Retired teacher, coach, author of 10 books—Bob took us on an unscripted tour of our town’s hidden history. I threw out my questions and just let him talk.

    Even if you’re not a history fan, his passion will hook you. Come rediscover why Kingsville is so special.
