Nicholas Michael Kingston

Nicholas Michael Kingston, best known as Nicholas M. Kingston or just Nicholas Kingston (1801-August 25,1874), was the second Governor of the State of Halsedon between 1858 and 1862. A member of the Republican Party, he is remembered for his extreme liberalist ideology and for being the co-founder of the state of Halsedon with Andrew Ray Miller.

Born in Ardale, California (current Halsedon), he attended the Hankton University, and graduated as a lawyer in 1822. He worked at the well-known Hankton Law firm Halsey & Smith as a Junior Lawyer, until he left his job in 1829 to apply to the Hankton Faculty of Political Science. He got graduated in 1834, but he didn't join any party. In September 1834 he married Hannah Morrison, and in 1835 they returned to Ardale, where Kingston succesfully ran for mayor. He left the office in 1842 due to health problems. Months later, at the age of 42, he founded his own Law Firm: the Ardale Justice Union. Eight years later, in 1850, he joined the Hankton Uprising, getting that way fame and prestige between halsedonians. After the independence of Halsedon, in 1857, he gained the position of Lieutenant Governor. Just before Andrew R. Miller's death, in 1858, he joined the Republican Party and succesfully ran for governor. He was in office until 1862, and died 12 years later at the age of 73.
