Delhi Township is celebrating its bicentennial this year. The area was first settled in 1789, but the township was not officially incorporated until December 27, 1816. Home to Mount St. Joseph University, the rolling hills of Delhi were primarily agricultural until the mid-20th century, which prompted the township'?s motto, ?The Floral Paradise of Ohio.
Joining us to share some history and a preview of this year?'s bicentennial events are Delhi historian Peg Schmidt; Huff Realty agent, Delhi Firefighter and Bicentennial Steering Committee Chair, Pete Pritchard; and Becky Johnson from the Delhi Historical Society.
