Former Mayors of the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames
The three former Boroughs of Malden and Coombe, Kingston and Surbiton were amalgamated in 1965 to form the present Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames. Note that, apart from a short period in 1685-87, the position of "Mayor" of the Royal Borough of Kingston dates from the municipal reforms of 1835. Prior to this the civic heads were two annually appointed "Bailiffs".
