 * Keep the references look ok to me. The article was a "Did You Know" in 2008. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 00:01, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment The article has 12 references. 8 of which (ref# 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 11, 12) are obituaries or find-a-grave both fail WP:RS when it comes to establishing notability. In fact 6 of those 8 aren't about Henry but other people. Of the other 4, 2 are strictly election results. Another is on a mobile home park named after him. That leaves 1 reference for his life accomplishments, or 3 if you count the election results refs....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 00:52, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Added comment Reference number two looks like a private email. Billy Hathorn articles have used statements from people that weren't published somewhere as references....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 09:48, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete At best election result are primary sources. This leaves 1 reference, and we MUST have at least two. County Comissioners are not defualt notable. Thus we need substantial sources, and we totally lack such.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:29, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
