Kings Towne on the Narrangasett Bay was settled in 1641. Later the town was split into North and South Kingstown, Rhode Island. The Naval Air Station was based at Quonset Point and the Construction Battalion (Seabees) was based at Davisville. The Quonset Air Museum and the Seabees Museum now commemorate their efforts. Gilbert Stuart, the man who painted the George Washington image that is on all the US one dollar bills was born in this town. Historical buildings such as Casey Farm and Smith's Castle help to tell the story of North Kingstown.
