I just removed two men with the surname "Duke" from the list of speakers, as they are not in the list of speakers in either the Cynthia Miller Leonard, Virginia General Assembly 1619-1978 volume that I have repeatedly cited, nor in Bruce Jamerson's Speakers and Clerks of the Virginia House of Delegates (2007) cited in this article. I don't have the time to check the precise date of the vandalism, but did note that the list was correct in December 2015 when it had a bunch of revisions from an IP address.

I checked a little more and noted that I contributed to the error on 10 June 2021 by revising Rockhead's revision of the Congressman Richard Thomas Walker Duke article to include the middle name of his father (and inserted a wikilink to a nonexistent page) without checking the Cynthia Miller Leonard volume to make sure the man had really served in the Virginia legislature during the 1812 war as already in that article (he hadn't), nor did the William Duke supposedly of James City County who someone incorrectly put as replacing the genuinely patriotic Thomas Mathews who I've now put back into the List of Speakers. I had wanted to clean up the bios of a few revolutionary war patriots by Memorial Day 2022! I'm distressed to see that the editor who made those vandalistic speakerlist and blatantly incorrect RTW Duke article revisions in January 2020 took the moniker ArmyBuff1776, and only slightly relieved to see that handle not used since 29 June 2020.
