Source 📝

305:: The cite is still from a historical journal from the region where the event occurred, less than 50 years from that time. The references are sketchy and the historical record is thin, regardless of what you claim. This article should be kept as I have seen dozens of articles regarding the Republic of Texas with fewer cites, etc. Also see this reference to Kennedy as a "famous Freemason" listed with Davy Crokett, etc. 420:. I can't see what this individual is notable for. He doesn't appear to be a notable politician, or notable cavalry captain, or notable freemason. What makes him notable?

He was a 4 term mayor of Ft. Worth and was

The previous deletion nomination was a speedy nomination on the grounds that no notability was asserted. The decline didn't mean that it was notable enough to keep, just that it wasn't non-notable enough to delete without a full discussion. And there's certainly enough sourcing out there to maintain

There is not a lot of information on the subject all together. Sourcing is sketchy in locations. If you're going to delete this page you need to delete the one on the R-M War. Also the article was also previously slated for deletion and was determined to be notable enough to keep. ALSO the source is

He was a member of that lodge and is clearly of note. I didn't see their sourcing. You need to delete most of the articles on Knowledge with your standards. Kennedy is mentioned in 2 historical records, one of which, as I have stated, IS reliable, IS from the region and time period in question, and

Then you haven't read the whole thread. The Regulator-Moderator War was the largest blood feud in American history and a major event in the history of the Republic of Texas. John J. Kennedy was the sheriff of the county while the war was raging and according to the cited, verified, and reliable
