Established by Adam R. Shipley in 1862, the grove surrounding the farm house across the meadow, exemplifies early settlers planting trees from their home states. Shipley, a leader in the pioneer community of Hazelia, served as State Grange Master and Regent for Oregon Agricultural College. The Cook Family has served as stewards of this impressive grove since James P. Cook purchased the farm from the Shipleys in 1900.
The tree can be viewed from Stevens Meadows Park on Shipley Drive in Lake Oswego
