 * Keep. All on-line sources have been used. Other sources would be off-line, most likely in the 1910s or 1949. Notable historical figure, second generation settler of Webster Parish, of prominent local family with roots in North Carolina and Alabama. Farmer and local official. Namesake of former elementary school. Billy Hathorn (talk) 00:18, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

We are not here to determine whether a historical figure's impact was "major enough," but rather whether sufficient published independent sources of presumed reliability exist to support a verifiable biography. this has it.
