Notability?

[edit]

After searching google books and google news archive, I can't find significant coverage of this company. The one source in the article that includes a discussion of the company here merely noted the the company built some highway bridges from 1914-1916, that its work was found to be of "decidely poor" workmanship by a state engineer, and that the company quickly went out of the bridge-building business. And the nomination forms indicate that the State Highway Dept. and other state engineers designed the bridges, and that Lincoln merely built the bridges (in some cases just the arches) per the design provided by the State. Without more/better sourcing, I have my doubts as to whether this one would pass a notability challenge. Cbl62 (talk) 04:53, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
