Asher Holmes

There was a prominent military leader named Asher Holmes during the Revolutionary War, but very little in his bio matches up with the one in this article. http://www.monmouthhistory.org/Sections-read-37.html SarekOfVulcan (talk) 21:54, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as a hoax. Although non-admins can't see them (obviously) we spent about 20 minutes going through his edits killing any obvious hoaxes (of which there are many). Ironholds (talk) 22:00, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. Whether a hoax or not, he seems completely non-notable. A common soldier, not even an officer, he does not stand out from the many thousands of others who fought in the war. Looks like genealogical research. -- Necrothesp (talk) 23:43, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
