Kimberly, in northern Jefferson County, grew up around a stagecoach station built in the 1830s that stayed in service until 1865, when the settlement was known as Kennelsville. It was later called Jefferson, probably after the nearby Old Jefferson coal mine, until the late 1880s; in 1888 its post office moved to nearby Morris. In 1905 residents voted to rename the town Kimberly because another Alabama town already had the name Jefferson, and by 1910 it had about 900 people.
Coal mines were the main employers and stayed active through the 1940s before closing gradually in the 1950s. The Dixie Firebrick Company, founded in the 1930s and later bought by A. P. Green Refractories, was another major employer until it closed in the mid-1970s. Kimberly was officially incorporated in 1952. Many of the city's records were lost in a fire at city hall in 1989. Its population grew from 1,801 in 2000 to 2,711 in 2010. Sources Wikipedia: Kimberly, Alabama
