Deletion of Herbert Harrison Mercer

Comment: He is certainly listed as Mayor in the ''História de Tibagi,'' published by the city/town of Tibagi, Prefeitura Municipal de Tibagi, in 1934, p. 151. Only part of the section is visible to me online.  He has a page in Wikipedia in Portuguese.  There is a Herbert Mercer Street in Tibagi, map https://www.google.com/maps/place/R.+Herbert+Mercer,+Tibagi+-+PR,+84300-000,+Brazil/@-24.5213145,-50.4084443,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x94e9b93404ec6abb:0x24434c4f744dad7d!8m2!3d-24.5213145!4d-50.4062556. Tibagi is a tourism destination (rafting, hiking) and I presume that there is some tourist interest in the Anglo origins of the town founders.  I think keep and hope for further sourcing, at per

Comment: The only thing that is reliably sourced is that Mercer was a mayor of a small town, way below the size needed to pass  on that count, and I can't find any reliable sources that say any more than that. I don't know where the idea comes from that he was one of the founders of Tibagi, because the article clearly states that it had already become a forum town (I guess that something has been lost in translation here and "market town" is meant, but, anyway, it was a town) before he settled there, and that he became the twelfth mayor, not the first. It is quite normal for streets to be named after local dignitories, so that doesn't create notability, and I'm sure that it was also perfectly normal for European immigrants to become mayors in 19th century South America.Special:Contributions/86.17.222.157|86.17.222.157
