Marcell is an unincorporated community in Marcell Township, Itasca County, Minnesota, United States. Minnesota State Highways 38 and 286 are two of the main routes in the community. Marcell is located 28 miles north of Grand Rapids. The community is located within the Chippewa National Forest. Nearby places include Bigfork, Talmoon, Bowstring, Deer River, and Effie. Despite its unincorporated status, Marcell appears on most more detailed maps of Minnesota due to the presence of several locally important businesses and the lack of larger communities in the surrounding area. ==History== Marcell was founded under the name ''Turtle Lake'' in 1905. The name was changed to ''Marcell'' the following year due to a name conflict with other communities named ''Turtle Lake''. The name Marcell is in honor of Andy Marcell, a conductor on the former Minneapolis and Rainy River Railway, who was involved in a railway accident in the area. The site of the town center was originally at a store operated by John Lundeen on Big Turtle Lake, but was moved in 1910 to its present location near the railway. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Marcell, Minnesota」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
