Paul Ferguson's official nomination notices concern the U.S. Marshal position for the Northern District of West Virginia.

This page groups records under the exact name in the snapshot. A shared name alone does not verify a career biography or establish that every record concerns the same person.

Understanding these records
PN means presidential nomination. Each numbered record tracks a proposal sent to the Senate.
A Senate confirmation approves a nomination; it is not proof of current tenure or an appointment taking effect. These entries show received dates and the latest recorded action, rather than a complete legislative action timeline.
