Non-notable mayor of a small town. Does not meet
WP:POLITICIAN or
WP:GNG. Article created by banned serial copyright violator and sock puppeteer Billy Hathorn.

Keep The references appear to me to meet GNG, and if you think it is copied from somewhere, show us the link to the prior material. --

Delete mayors of such a small town are no where near notable. Small town newspaper articles from over half a century ago are just not the things passing GNG is made of. For a local politician to be notable, we need to show that the media coverage is significantly more than is normal for local politicians. Otherwise, we would need to create tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of more articles on small city mayors. Except we are woefully behind in even creating articles on members of US state legislatures, a group that in theory we should have an article on every person who ever was such. Don't even get me started on how we do not have articles on even all the current members of the legisltive body of Ghana.
