I don't have a lot of information, but it is a full Federal Courthouse in Nashville, Tennessee, that opened in 2022. It would be great if there could be some help so it would be approved. Thanks [[User:Saxonjf|The Saxon]] ([[User talk:Saxonjf|talk]]) 20:57, 4 June 2024 (UTC) |

Albert T. Frantz mystery
I have just mainspaced an article on Colorado Supreme Court justice Albert T. Frantz. The problem is, he is assuredly dead (or else he would be 120 years old), but I can't figure out when he died. Various websites report that he died in 1966, but that is impossible, since contemporaneous newspaper accounts describe him as being alive and active in the public sphere at least up to 1976. The last thing I can find is that he was counsel in a matter before the Colorado Court of Appeals in 1982. I find no references after that, but no obituary or other indicia of his death either. BD2412 T 22:43, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
- Tricky one. Both Ancestry's Social Security Death Index (which I'm having trouble linking but is available through WP:TWL) and Find a Grave give the death date as November 1986, which is probably correct, but I haven't been able to find anything that would qualify as an RS. The Ancestry one suggests that his last known residence was Aurora, CO, so someone with access to the Aurora Sentinel archives might be able to find an obituary, but there doesn't seem to be much of anything online. Will let you know if I think of anything else. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 23:40, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
- If somebody has access to the July 1996 issue of The Colorado Lawyer (vol. 25, issue 7), there's a good chance his death is described there, in "Six of the Greatest: Albert T. Frantz" by John L. Livingston and William S. Fleming. Here's the ToC for the issue on HeinOnline, but the wiki library doesn't give access to bar journals (shakes fist). It may also be available through Westlaw Classic. Star Garnet (talk) 00:57, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- Per User:Extraordinary Writ, I'm going to call it November 1986 but mark it as citation needed. I'm also fine calling the SSDI a "source", since this is not a particularly contentious claim (and obviously not a BLP). BD2412 T 01:12, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- Ooh, good find, Star Garnet. As it happens I do have access to HeinOnline's bar journals, and this one states (p. 18) "Al Frantz died in 1985 at the age of 81 and is buried at Mount Olivet Cemetery." Happy to send a PDF if anyone's interested—just email me. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 03:11, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- Excellent work, all! BD2412 T 04:20, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks, that article had quite a few good nuggets. Star Garnet (talk) 05:06, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- @Extraordinary Writ and Star Garnet: I have another knotty one at Draft:Abraham Berger. All I can find on this one is that he was appointed by Ulysses S. Grant to serve as a justice of the New Mexico Territorial Supreme Court in 1869, apparently from Minnesota. BD2412 T 14:10, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
- BD2412, I can look at this more thoroughly later, but at a glance it looks like his actual name may have been Abraham Bergen (not Berger): maybe see if that name gets you anywhere? Extraordinary Writ (talk) 20:29, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Extraordinary Writ: Yes, that immediately yields more hits. BD2412 T 20:49, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
- Abram Bergen, in fact. BD2412 T 03:26, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
