Thomas E. JacksonThomas Jackson (actor) – Not a WP:NATURALDIS since he was credited as "Thomas E." only a few times and the main title header for his entry at the authoritative American Film Institute Catalog is Thomas Jackson, the same as his entry at Find a Grave. His gravestone does depict his full name, Thomas Edward Jackson, but he never used the full form as a stage name. — Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 23:40, 5 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support move, but is it really necessary, the redirect you created serves the purpose well, but your rationale above is quite sound.Onel5969 TT me 00:05, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Marriage[edit]

https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/seattletimes/name/llellwyn-jackson-obituary?id=29516619 would seem to suggest that he was married to the former Llellwyn Smith, originally of Seattle, who began her professional career as a dancer in 1915 and apparently lived to be over 100 years old. We happen to have what appears to be a picture of her dancing in Seattle at age 15, shown here. But I see no mention of her in the article, and we don't seem to have a proper obituary among the references, nor can I readily find one. Sadly, the obit of his apparent wife, that I've linked here, is probably not citable because it's a paid death notice, not something editorially approved by the Seattle Times. - Jmabel | Talk 00:26, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
