Delete as per WP:NOTE; also unreferenced. -- Niaz(Talk • Contribs) 14:28, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Comment. Unsure about this one, but at the moment it fails WP:V and so I would be more in favour of a delete unless anyone can improve this with reliable sources.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 15:20, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. As a member of Wikipedia:WikiProject Anthroponymy I started trying to rescue this as a surname article, but really it's not, and its own declared source is stated to be private. - Fayenatic (talk) 13:28, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak keep; if someone works with the new user, I think it can be rescued and a valuable new user gained in the process. John Vandenberg (talk) 20:08, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, JERRY talk contribs 05:52, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep, a quick Google search shows that the family certainly existed and the claims in the article seem to be plausible. As an aside, I think that Wikipedia could really use more articles on notable families and geneologies. Lankiveil (complaints | disco) 06:23, 9 February 2008 (UTC).
  • Keep I think such articles make sense fairly generally. In this case certainly, given the family ownership of places on the national register--places which would each unquestionably justify an individual article. Even their family cemetery is on the register. DGG (talk) 20:22, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
