Livermore was officially incorporated on April 1, 1876. The townsite was established in 1869 by William M. Mendenhall, who named the community after his friend Robert Livermore, an early rancher in the valley. From its agricultural roots and early wine-growing industry, Livermore has grown into the city it is today.
