Unremarkable person; no sources; doesnt link to any article. Originally under CSD A7, moved to AfD after Contest for Speedy Deletion undetermined. Music1201 (talk) 07:55, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect to Gregson-Hadley House, ref its nomination form. Gregson appears to have had minor notability in the development of Siler City, but not enough to meet GNG or ANYBIO
, or to make a useful article. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 09:10, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

- Delete as searches noticeably found nothing better and there's nothing else convincing especially the article's current context. I'm also not optimistic about the Redirect mentioned above because he's currently not mentioned there and I'm not finding anything solid to confirm a Redirect.

- Delete, completely unsourced. Bishonen | talk 19:43, 7 April 2016 (UTC).
- Comment: The Gregson-Hadley house PDF (http://www.hpo.ncdcr.gov/nr/CH0477.pdf) has a reasonable biography and links Gregson to the Gregson-Hadley house. This is thus
sufficient andreliable (edit: though WP:ONESOURCE) to construct a referenced biography, however I still don't believe Gregson meets GNG/ANYBIO as his notability appears purely local to Siler City, so would still stick with the Redirect proposed for this (also applied to Julius Clarence Gregson), with no objection to redirection to Siler City if that article ever incorporates Gregson into its early history).~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 03:36, 9 April 2016 (UTC) - Delete - although one potential source suggests notability, I can't see how this person passes WP:GNG as anybody notable.

- Delete - not enough coverage in independent, reliable sources to show they pass WP:GNG. Onel5969 TT me 19:46, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
