Non-notable biography. Only claim to notability is death in the RMS Titanic sinking. Jmlk 1  7  05:33, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Seems to have been a WP:LOCAL captain of industry. One of his companies is still around. But there's not much out there really about him as an industrialist. --Dhartung | Talk 05:47, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:HEY by Eastmain & Morhange. --Dhartung | Talk 23:18, 29 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Merge/Redirect to List of passengers on board RMS Titanic.
 * Keep per work done on article that clearly establishes notability -- brew crewer  (yada, yada) 05:51, 29 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep now that there's more info. Morhange (talk) 20:18, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
