As requested by Bill Connor, I'm writing to correct an error in the Point Pleasant participants list. I've seen it before, and didn't try to get it altered, but the listing of Col. William Fleming as having been killed at Point Pleasant is erroneous. He was gravely wounded and was expected to die, but did indeed survive to return home. He was unable to continue as a military surgeon, much less command a force, but he was able to serve on the Committee of Safety during the Rev. War., and was said to have stood as temporary governor of Virginia for two(?) weeks after the resignation of Thomas Jefferson and before Thomas Nelson's acceptance of the office in 1781. According to his grave marker, he died in 1795. In Roanoke, Virginia there is a William Fleming High School, of which I am a graduate, born not far from his burial site on his plantation, in Botetourt County during his time. Check with the Nancy Christian Fleming Chapter of the DAR for further information. Please correct this misinformation about his death in your notes. Thank you.
