PREFACE

I have attempted to index all names showing the names as found in the book Looking Back by Alida Chapman · book is a compilation of the articles written by Mrs Cha that were published in the INGHAM COUNTY NEWS Mason, Michigan between 1960 and 1970's; winning es from the Elementary, Junior High and Senior High Schc levels in 1975-76; Anecdotes, and pictures. A listing of headings follows the index.

This book contains a great deal of information about th( history of Delhi township and Holt with a number of pie of early families.

An index is important to family history researchers and 1

the book contained some information on my own surmu thought the time well spent in doing this project.
