Delete. Melbourne FL is not a large or important enough city to confer an automatic presumption of notability on all of its mayors under WP:NPOL just because they existed, but this is not referenced anywhere near well enough to actually pass WP:NPOL #2: the article is referenced 6/7 to unreliable sources that are not support for notability at all, such as primary source genealogical records on FamilySearch.com (which we are not allowed to use as sourcing on here at all!), and the one that actually comes from a real newspaper isn't enough all by itself.

Delete the article reads well, but is slapped together from sources which don't meet WP:GNG as Bearcat notes. A quick WP:BEFORE search of archival newspapers doesn't bring up anything helpful. SportingFlyer T·C 20:32, 20 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
