Since 1793

A short history of Dennis

Indigenous peoples have been living in the Cape Cod region for at least 9,000 years. The historic Algonquian-speaking Wampanoag are one of 69 tribes of the original Wampanoag Nation.

After being settled by English colonists of the New Plymouth Colony in 1639 as part of the town of Yarmouth, Dennis became known as the East Precinct. The northern sections of the town were called Nobscussett, Sesuit and Quivet by the original inhabitants.

The town was named after resident minister Reverend Josiah Dennis. Dennis officially separated from Yarmouth in 1793. Lacking farmable land, seafaring became the town's major industry in its early history. Beginning around the 1830s, activity in the area centered around the construction of boats in the Shiverick Shipyard.

The Cape Playhouse in northern Dennis, established in 1927, is the oldest summer theater in the United States. Notable past and present Dennis residents include author Mary Higgins Clark, actress Bette Davis, and actress Amy Jo Johnson.
