History
In 1835, José María Amador was granted 16,500 acres for his service as a Mexican soldier and in Mission San Jose, where he was an administrator in the valley now named Amador Valley after him. In 1850, Irish settlers bought land from Amador and founded a town.
Several historical sites are preserved and located where Dublin Boulevard is crossed by Donlon Way, itself formerly the northernmost segment of the main road to Sunol and Niles Canyon (present-day Foothill Road):
The Murray Schoolhouse was established in 1856 with 50 pupils.
Green's Store (opened in 1860) is the current home of the Dublin Church of Christ.
The Dublin Pioneer Cemetery was formally established in 1859, although people had been buried in the churchyard previously.
Old St. Raymond's Church (built in 1859) is the oldest extant Catholic church in Alameda and Contra Costa counties, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Dublin Boulevard, a generally east–west road running just north of Interstate 580, was a part of the Lincoln Highway and later U.S. Route 50. The street formerly curved southward near today's Hansen Drive to follow present-day Dublin Canyon Road toward Hayward.
