History:  

DELHI Township, first settled in 1865, organized February 19, 1876, was named by Alfred M. Cook, builder and owner of a flour mill at Redwood Falls, who came from Delhi, a village in Ohio, near Cincinnati. Six other states have villages of this name, derived from the large city of Delhi in India. The city in sections 7, 8, 17, and 18, bearing the same name, was platted in 1884 and was incorporated as a village November 13, 1902. The post office, begun in 1884 in section 17, had Rodman R. Hurlbut as postmaster and depot agent at the station serving the Minneapolis and St. Louis and the Wisconsin, Minnesota and Pacific Railroads.
