The railroad connection to Cedarville was built by the Bird and Wells Lumber Company in the 1890s. In 1906, forest fires caused significant damage in Cedarville. Railroad cars loaded with wood burned on the tracks, and cedar-filled drying kilns burned. Together with neighboring Wausaukee, losses were estimated at $200,000. By 1916, Cedarville had 54 households; the settlers were mostly farmers from Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa. That same year, the community was platted as a town with two named streets, and it had a train station, potato warehouse, school, church, store, garage, and post office. An agricultural fair was held in Cedarville in the 1920s, and the settlement received electricity in 1925. However, by 1925 the settlement had also started to decline, with many families moving away.
