- Delete. Mid-ranking officer. No special notability. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 14:04, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
- Delete -- Most of it is about his NN relatives. Possibly merge to his son. Peterkingiron ( talk) 11:43, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. I think criterion 2 of WP:Soldier applies here. He was brevetted 3 times for conspicuous bravery a / valor in combat. [1] [2] 2nd level medals for valor did not exist at that time. He was also notable enough at the time of his death for a fairly lengthy death notice in the Nov 21, 1902 Boston Globe as well as smaller wire service death announcements in the New York Times and many other US newspapers in IL, OH, PA and other states. -- Dual Freq ( talk) 15:39, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

- Delete rank is non-notable per WP:SOLDIER, there is no evidence in the article that he was brevet'd for bravery, otherwise fails WP:GNG, lack of significant coverage in multiple reliable sources independent of the subject. Peacemaker67 ( crack... thump) 21:25, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
