Constructed of wood about 1880 by Joseph E. Bishop, son-in-law of A.H. and Sarah Jane Dobkins, founders of Dublin, this building was veneered in 1895 with native stone and remodeled in 1943 and 1965. Its colorful and important occupants have included banks, medical clinics, a drugstore, a newspaper plant, saloons, and a dress shop. In 1971, Grace Prim Lyon donated the building to the Dublin Historical Society in memory of her husband, G.A. (Ted) Lyon (1894-1944).
