Lebanon, New Hampshire, was established as a town in 1761. Its name is undoubtedly derived from the birthplace and original home of most of the settlers, which was Lebanon, Connecticut. This included the founder of the prestigious Dartmouth University, Eleazar Wheelock. Lebanon was the first location of the Indian Charity School, which was the foundation for Dartmouth University in NH before its move to Hanover. However in 1781 Lebanon was one of the towns which tried to join Vermont during its border dispute with New Hampshire, but ended up coming back to its rightful place a short time later. Lebanon was incorporated as a city in 1957.
