Wiley A. Abercrombie was paid on a War Department certificate that he had served three months with Captain Wadsworth's Company, and that he was killed with Fannin's men. On LOMR for Wadsworth's Company his name appears as William Abercrombie, with notation "Deserted and absent without leave." There is no corroboration of this entry on the original or corrected versions of the T&TR Roll of Fannin's men  [Ed: "William" on Dr. Barnard's roll]; and if the LOMR notation was on the original muster roll it must have been explained to the satisfaction of War Department, since deserters were forbidden by law to draw lands or pay.

Abercrombie drew this soldier's pay. [CMSR. No. 7365, State Library.]
