PROD with the rationale "Searches on Newspapers.com, Gbooks, Google, Syracuse University Catalogue, ProQuest, bring up nothing approaching significant coverage that is indicative of notability. Leading a drum corps in St. Louis is only notable if its been written about, which I see no indication of" removed without adding sources indicative of notability, so here we are.

Roques played at the opening of such miltary historic sites as Jefferson Barracks, and other locations such as Ft. Bellefontain, and the Battle of New Orleans in the War of 1812. His father was a soldier in the Revolutionary War coming over from France with Gen. Lafayette. Significant US Military history. Jnroques (talk) 17:17, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. Interesting local history but does not meet our notability requirements. Mccapra (talk) 14:50, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Do not Delete.This article should not be deleted due to numerous sources including historical socities, Newpapers.com, Military documents and more. A search would locate this. This is important documented information for the military history of Missouri and the City of St. Louis, which does not have history like this readily available.
