History
During the Edo period, all of Kai Province was tenryō territory under direct control of the Tokugawa shogunate. With the establishment of the modern municipalities system in the early Meiji period in 1889, the village of Dōshi was created in Minamitsuru District, Yamanashi Prefecture. From 1897, the Dōshigawa River, which runs through the village, was designated as a primary source of water for the growing city of Yokohama. From 1916 a large portion of the village land area was designated as a protected watershed.
On June 12, 2003, 653 of the village residents signed a petition to be allowed the village to merge with the city of Yokohama.
