The first settlers arrived in Excel around 1875. The town was named Excel because of the excellent agricultural land there. Around the turn of the century, Excel was connected by rail, allowing for economic expansion through the shipping of lumber and farm products. The rail line ceased operation in 1935, and Excel's growth slowed by 1937.
