Being a mayor of North Adams could be enough for notability if the person could be sourced well enough to clear  for it, but is not an automatic inclusion freebie that exempts a person from having to clear GNG. But all of these articles either state that the subject existed as a mayor the end, or add only personal life details that are irrelevant to establishing notability — not one of them addresses or sources ''anything'' about what they actually ''did'' in their role as mayor. And none are actually evincing a GNG pass, either: some are completely unsourced, some are single-sourced to glancing namechecks of the person's existence in much broader local history books, and while some cite more sources than that none of those sources are strong ones. James M. Lilly, for example, cites three |primary source civil genealogy records (his draft card, his Social Security Death Index entry and a census form) that cannot support notability at all, his obituary, and his wife's obituary. Which means his obituary is the only source that even ''begins'' to support his notability, because it's the only one that actually represents coverage ''about'' him, but it's not a source that can ''carry'' GNG all by itself as an article's ''only'' relevant source. No prejudice against recreation in the future if someone can actually do much better at actually sourcing some or all of these over  #2 than any of them is showing right now
