Delete. Biography of the mayor of a small village, sourced only to a general history of the village published by the local historical society (which thus constitutes a brief namecheck of his existence rather than a source that's substantively about him.) There's no real substance here to deem him notable, as the article consists entirely of basic biographical detail that has no bearing on his notability whatsoever but contains nothing about his actual career as mayor -- and there's not nearly enough sourcing here to suggest a WP:GNG claim either.
