C.W. Cooke and Julia Gardner, 1930 (personal statement). Fleming clay is of late Miocene and possibly early Pliocene age; is = Pacagoula clay; and is younger than Oakville sandstone and Hattiesburg clay.
Additional note: The USGS discarded this name from its classification in 1932.

Pg. 150-173, geol. map. Fleming formation of Grand Gulf group. In surface exposures in Rapides Parish, Louisiana, divided into (ascending) Lena, Carnahan Bayou, Dough Hills, Williamson Creek, Castor Creek, and Blounts Creek members (all new). Overlies Catahoula formation of Grand Gulf; underlies Pleistocene. Age is Miocene.
In western Rapides Parish, members are separately mapped; Carnahan Bayou member extends into adjacent Vernon Parish, and Lena and Carnahan Bayou members extend north into Natchitoches Parish. In eastern Rapides Parish, Fleming is mapped undivided.
