The ground it stands on
3,253 wordsThe chapter on Delhi Township in The History of Redwood County, Minnesota, published 1916 names Delhi. This is what it says, exactly as the scans read.
Delhi township is located on the north-central border of Redwood county, and comprises Congressional fractional townships 113-36 and 114-36. It is bounded on the north by the Minnesota river, on the east by Honner, on the west by Kintire, and on the south by Redwood Palls, and half a mile of Sheridan, due to the irregularity of half a mile in the survey. Ramsey creek crosses it on the southern side, and Rice creek flows northeast in the northwest part of this township. The surface is rolling and well-watered. The Pacific division of the Minneapolis and St. Louis passes through the center from east to west. The only village is Delhi with a population in 1910 of 174. The trading centers are Delhi and Redwood Falls. There are three schoolhouses. The predominating nationality is American and Scotch, the township being the center of the Scotch settlement in Redwood comity.

Beginning with the organization of the county, Delhi was considered a part of Redwood Falls. Delhi township was created February 1, 1878, and consisted of all of township 113-36 in this county. Fractional township 114-36 (which since September 4, 1872, had been a part of Swedes Forest) was added to Delhi, May 11, 1880, thus giving it its present boundaries.
