The population was 1,951 at the 2010 census.[3] GeographyNessel Township is located in the northwest corner of Chisago County and is bordered by Isanti County to the west and Pine County to the north. Rush City lies on the eastern border of the township. The unincorporated community of Rush Point is in the southwest part of the township. Interstate 35 closely follows the eastern boundary line of the township, leading north to Rock Creek and Pine City, and south to Harris and North Branch. Access to the township is from County 1 exit in Rush City. According to the United States Census Bureau, the township has a total area of {{convert|110.6|sqkm|disp=flip}}, of which {{convert|96.8|sqkm|disp=flip}} is land and {{convert|13.8|sqkm|disp=flip}}, or 12.45%, is water.[3] Rush Lake is a large two-basin water body in the center of the township. HistoryNessel Township bears the name of its earliest pioneer farmer, Robert Nessel, who was born in Germany in 1834, came to the United States in 1847 and to Minnesota in 1854, and settled here in 1856. The township was organized in 1870.[4] Rush Lake, and the soil, attracted people to settle in the township, and many of the farms are still owned by the descendants of the early settlers. When Mr. Nessel filed for a homestead of his place, he found that many native Americans occupied the land, with whom he had to bargain. He reportedly paid $150.00 for the initial {{convert|160|acre|km2}} to Alexis LaPrairie. This was a great camping place for the native people, as the lower lake was full of wild rice which they gathered. The narrows between the two lakes was a gathering place for the native people during rice harvesting time.
