  • Delete - with no objection to recreating with relaible sources. Not enough source material to meet WP:N. The only reference I could find, Philadelphia Inquirer (December 5, 1985) Obituaries: Gearldine S. Tyson[1] Section: Local; Page B27 - mentions:

    "Miss Tyson was a member of the ninth generation of Tysons in the Philadelphia area. The family came from Germany and in 1683 settled on a land grant from William Penn. The Tysons were one of the original 13 families to settle Germantown in 1683. In 1700, Reynier Tyson purchased 1,000 acres in Abington Township. In the 18th and 19th centuries, his heirs owned and farmed much of what is now Abingtown. Lime used in the 1734 building of Independence Hall came from the Tyson limekiln and quarries in the Roslyn section of the township, and one of the ancestral homes, Tyson Green, still stands on Highland Avenue, just off Old York Road, in Abington."

  • Delete - no assertion of notability. And no, being a notable guy's relative doesn't count. Joestella 07:49, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete most definately fails notability --Childzy ¤ Talk 11:34, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Delete Surprisingly long for someone who fails WP:NOT, isn't it? Cannot ascertain notability, even through it's substantial length.Perfect Proposal Speak out loud! 14:38, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete because notability is not inherited. Corpx 04:04, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
