Hi Toni, Not sure if you realize it or not but there is a North Cemetery in Delhi Township. Many buried there are members of the North family. Records show that on May 17, 1852, a purchase price of $55 was paid by the Delhi Township Board to Joshua North for the original tract of land. The older part of the cemetery was plotted but apparently use was limited to members of the North family and close friends. Unfortunately no records exist as to where individual burials were made. There are some headstone photos from the North Cemetery and a couple of other Delhi Township cemeteries which can be seen at the Michigan Tombstone Project, Ingham County - http://www.rootsweb.com/~cemetery/michigan/ingham.htm I did put a map of North Cemetery on the website but it is very small.
