No indication in article what his notability derives from. The only independent source does not appear to actually refer to Ray by name, and without a page number, it's impossible to tell what it is sourcing. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 20:24, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, zero references attesting anything beyond his existence (and even that is from non-RS genealogy sites). Tracking Barefoot Runyon doesn't mention him, contrary to its being cited as a source. Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 05:29, 8 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - No indication of notability. -- Joaquin008 ^(talk) 13:53, 9 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I have been off the Internet for almost two years, I no longer have continuous use. I am putting up about 6 Baptist articles as they relate to Clay County, Alabama. This minister had notability in Clay County as a circuit preacher and also having introduced ppoultry farming to replace cotton. I still have to place apppropriate links and I can get some more references as well. It is taken from his book and I can put in page numbers. He is in Barefoot Runyan as his name is misspelled there. Maybe you can wait till I have finished my project. You are all (past 5 years) been to quick to quash notability no matter how small. KEEP for my articles.

Delete. This appears to be a biography of one of the article creator's family members, which is a conflict of interest. Such an article could avoid deletion if it were well-sourced and clearly indicated notability, but I don't think that this one does. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:37, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Deltete subject does not seem to be notable. Article is written in a personal and biased way. --Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 02:06, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
