Clark Parker was the first settler in the Upper Nehalem Valley. In 1874 he began homesteading on the East side of the Nehalem River. In 1875 Van Blaricom came and homesteaded along Rock Creek which is the main part of town now. Volunteers started the first road out of the upper valley to the North in 1879. It was a dirt wagon road and is known today as the 'St. Helens-Pittsburg'. In 1880 a violent windstorm followed by extraordinary snow closed all roads from fallen trees and isolated the area for months.

William Newby was on the first wagon train that arrived in Oregon. In 1853, he built a gristmill that was the main reason the area was able to grow. Newby came from McMinnville, Tennessee which is where the name came from. During the early days, the area was a thriving agricultural area. It had 300 inhabitants. In 1876 McMinnville was incorporated as a town and then again in 1882 as a city. In 1886 the county seat was moved to McMinnville from Lafayette. Many of the building that were built between 1885 and 1912 are still intact on Third Street.
