Dublin is a town in Cheshire County, New Hampshire with a population of 1,597 at the 2010 census. In 1749, the Masonian proprietors granted the town as Monadnock No. 3 (or North Monadnock) to Matthew Thornton and 39 others. The 40 grantees came mostly from middle and eastern parts of New Hampshire but none of them grantees became settlers in the township. The French and Indian War thwarted permanent settlement until the 1760s, when Irishman Henry Strongman moved from Peterborough. Other early settlers arrived from Sherborn, Massachusetts. In 1771, Governor John Wentworth incorporated the town, naming it after Strongman’s birthplace, Dublin, Ireland. Like all towns in this area, the terrain features hills, and valleys. Farmers found the soil hard and rocky, but with effort it yielded maize, oats, barley, and potatoes, with some wheat and rye. Orchards were common. The first census, taken in 1790, reported 901 residents. By 1859, there were 1,088. In 1870, the small mill town of Harrisville voted to separate from Dublin, leaving the latter with only 455 residents during the 1880 census. The northern slopes of Mount Monadnock occupy the southern part of town. The highest point in Dublin is along Monadnock’s northeast ridge, where the elevation reaches 2,834 above sea lever at the town line. Roughly the western half of Dublin lies within the Connecticut River watershed, drained by tributaries of the Ashuelot River, with the eastern half located in the Merrimack River watershed, drained by tributaries of the Contoocook River.
