The history of Delhi Charter Township and the unincorporated community of Holt is remembered with historical photographs that show the changes over the years. Holt once seemed like a country town, as farmland and woodlots separated it from Lansing; however, many current residents may not recall that era. North Cemetery on Miller Road was annexed by the City of Lansing in the early 1960s. Heavy development changed the land along Cedar Street, and even the expansive Kahres farm with the best corn growing land succumbed to commercialism. Even businesses changed, with the loss of the Hartley Grocery and the delightful Country Kitchen Restaurant. Much of the forgotten history of the area, including Miller Road and Maple Grove, can be found in the attics or boxes of longtime residents. Images of America: Holt and Delhi Township showcases many fine photographs for readers to enjoy.
