From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

CEDAR MILLS Township, organized January 25, 1870, received the name of its village founded in 1860, which was named from the large Cedar Lake, about two miles distant to the east. This lake has many red cedars on its shores and islands, as noted by its name on Joseph N. Nicollet's map, Rantesha Wita or Red Cedar Island Lake. The city in sections 12-14 was incorporated as a village in 1950; the site was originally owned by the City Investment Company and was platted in December 1922. The post office, begun in 1870 in Renville County, was transferred to Meeker County in 1872, discontinued in 1904, reestablished in 1927, and changed to a rural branch in 1955; its station served several railroad lines including the Minneapolis and St. Louis Railroad.
