This article is about a non-notable British Army soldier. There are no sources that denote this person's individual notability; he is mentioned as a relatively minor part in the Eureka Rebellion, and is relevant only because of this part. The content in this biography is entirely copied in both Eureka Jack Mystery and Eureka Flag, which are both more suitable locations for the information to be placed. This person participated in a notable event, but are not themselves notable. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 15:28, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

• Delete: He's notable for testifying about a flag he saw? That's what I'm reading in the article now... Not seeing how this is notable. Oaktree b (talk) 15:44, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
