==History==
John Quincy Adams Young and his wife Elizabeth Young settled in the area in 1862 and built a log cabin.〔Young, Hazel. "Cedar Mill recalls history, dates to 1874", ''Hillsboro Argus'', October 19, 1976, Communities: p. 19.〕 In 1869, they built a new home, followed by another larger one built in 1873.〔 Young served as the first postmaster of Cedar Mill starting in 1874.〔 He named the community after the cedar trees in the area and for the mill he co-owned.〔 The post office was located in the 1869 house, with the family living across the road in a newer home.〔 Young remained as postmaster until 1882.〔
The house and a half acre of land surrounding it have been owned by the Tualatin Hills Park and Recreation District (THPRD) since 2005.〔〔Colby, Richard (January 13, 2005). "Tualatin Hills Park & Rec saves house that helped build Cedar Mill". ''The Oregonian'', "Washington County Weekly" section, p. 1.〕 It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.〔〔 In 2012, the Friends of the John Quincy Adams Young House asked THPRD to allocate $26,000 to repair the foundation of the structure. The group was also attempting to raise $650,000 to completely restore the home and allow it to be opened up to the public.〔
