 * Delete oldest person in a state with less then a million people is not impressive.  She was not even 1 in a million.  Her life was so unremarkable that the most interesting thing in the links is she was born the year Pepsi was invented. Legacypac (talk) 10:00, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete Coverage seems routine and local and not of the ilk to satisfy WP:N in justifying a stand-alone page. Canadian   Paul  18:40, 26 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete/Merge When I looked into it, two of the sources, the delawareonline ones, were actually identical but had been listed twice in the archives. So in reality, there are two local type of sources that discuss her. While that would merit a scraping pass on notability, even calling it a stub would be generous.
