I am unable to find any reliable source coverage to establish notability. A link to ancestry.ca is the only source on the article, and that is behind a paywall. But in any case, it is a user generated content site, which even if it was available to the general public would still not constitute a reliable source. I am able to locate a few other similar user generated geneology site mentions as well, but those also do not appear to be reliable sources from a Wikipedia perspective. I am happy to withdraw this nomination if significant notability can be established through reliable sources. But as it stands now since I have been unable to locate them, this appears to not warrant an article. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 20:39, 29 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete I see no assertion of notability. Half the article is about the 1st Battle of Saratoga, also known as the Battle of Freeman's Farm but the subject of the article is presumably named after the farm, not the other way around. Otherwise, just a summary of a fairly ordinary life in extraordinary times. Mere political affiliation and military service does not count unless he has been the subject of intense biographical study in his own right, which seems unlikely since he never did anything of note, and nothing of this nature appears on a Google search. --AJHingston (talk) 08:21, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
