What would be Donnellson was first surveyed by H. A. Summers for Esten Donnell, for who the town would be named. [5] Esten’s son, W. R. Donnell helped construct the first buildings in Donnellson, and served as the railroad agent and post master. The town would begin to grow after the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad passed through to town. [6] Donnellson was incorporated on October 25, 1892.[7] At this time Donnellson was around 120 acres and 200 residents.

In 1897 Donnellson had had its first firehouse. From 1900 to 1910 the town grew quickly, with a telephone system, cheese factory, electric light plant, and water system being constructed. [6]

The first school in Donnellson was built in 1915. [6] Donnellson, plus the surrounding communities of Argyle and Montrose, is served by the Central Lee Community School District, which was consolidated into one location in 1986.[8]

Donnellson is home to the Lee County Speedway, a 3⁄8-mile (0.60 km) dirt oval racetrack.[9]
