History

The locality was named after three of the original settlers in the area by combining parts of their surnames (Kinnear, Leys, Morey), and also used this as the railway station name from 2 March 1923. Previously it was called Mobill (reported as a Waka language word meaning stony country).[1]

Kinleymore Provisional School opened on 20 June 1913. On 1 February 1918 it became Kinleymore State School. It closed on 31 December 1969.[2]
