If you really want to find out for certain who your immigrant and patriarchs are, you need to get a male, (direct line) Fleming relative to join our Fleming study at Ancestry. It is inexpensive and easy to do. If you will send me your pedigree, I will check to see if it is already represented by a current participant.
