Colonel William Fleming, for whom our school is named was born in Scot- land, February 29, 1729. He came to America at twenty-six, having studied medicine in Edinburgh. His first com- mission vvas under George Washing- ton in The French and Indian War, and it Was during this period that he gained notice as a military leader. He came to what is novv Roanoke County in 1770 to help organize the new coun- ty of Botetourt, of which Roanoke was then a part. He married Nancy Christian and built a home which still stands just north of the city. He sub- sequently fought in the Revolutionary War, was in the Virginia Senate, and helped establish several Virginia schools. We again, as in the past, in- clude in our yearbook the seal of the Fleming family. The scepter sur- mounted by a coiled serpent indicates his royal birth. The checkerboard is the symbol of a great huntsman. The figures beneath, called greyhounds, are the mark of brave and daring fighters. The translation of the motto is May the King live forever .
