Definite genealogical entry as it stands (I found it, incidentally, by googling "geneology", a common misspelling). Remove the unencyclopedic detail, and this article says he founded the Seattle-Tacoma Box Company and had a notable grandson, John Hopcroft. The current mentions in those two articles should be sufficient. Or am I missing something obvious? &mdash;Korath (Talk) 07:41, Mar 23, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. It is definitely notable and consists of more than just a genealogical entry.
