There is also a fashion show they are having called "The Men’s Show" a unique trade show designed for men, yet equally entertaining for women. The show will feature inter… Continue

Who doesn't like to eat fresh produce? The Dublin Farmers Market is about to arrive at Dublin Community Church, 81 W.

    Dublin history lesson

    Peter and Benjamin Sells came to the area around 1801 from Huntington County, Pa., to buy land. Old Dublin was first platted in 1810 by their brother, John. Surveyor John Shields named the town after his birthplace in Ireland. The town developed the usual assortment of mills, shops and churches, with settlers coexisting peacefully with Wyandot Indians, who camped on Indian Run. The town gained notoriety in the mid-19th century, when a surplus of taverns and rowdy Civil War veterans gave the village a tough reputation. Columbus' growth and the construction of I-270 made expansion inevitable. Dublin achieved city status in 1987.
