Fails WP:GNG. Of the four sources used in the article, one is an untitled and unlinked local newspaper article, one is a passing mention in a book on the history of Alexandria, LA (2 total mentions over 305 pages); and the other two are from a personal family history blog.

  • Delete. See WP:MEMORIAL. Local Louisiana landowner who doesn't seem to be notable, especially if you're not from that specific rural region. Same issues with the article about his son Morgan W. Walker Jr. (also should be nominated for AfD), which has only 2 sources and reads like an obituary from a local non-notable newspaper. — Stevey7788 (talk) 02:06, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Stevey7788: Good call, I've now nominated his son's article for deletion as well. Best, GPL93 (talk) 13:41, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
