Though not incorporated until 1833, Dillsburg was unofficially founded by Irish settler Captain Matthew Dill in 1740. Dill had been granted 504 acres of land, which today is part of Dillsburg. The settlement (near present day Dillsburg) was originally called Monaghan after Dill’s hometown. After its incorporation, the town was very popular as a focal point for agricultural product transportation, due to its location on two major routes.
