message: How did anyone find out about her death?  From what I last heard (1995 book) she was a bag lady in Hollywood.  Are there any reports on her last years?
:The only authoritative report of her death I can find is her bio on IMDb. All other sites (like the Answers.com article) that include a reference point back to IMDb or else here to the WP article. Many pages without references also seem to be copies of the WP article, except for a few rip-offs of IMDb. But I did find this Life in Legacy report* as well as this article that seems to contain some additional (uncited) material.
:* The Life in Legacy about page notes that "For example, Erin Fleming, Groucho’s last girlfriend, died in April 2003, but her death wasn’t reported to the media until September 2003." So that gives you a jumping off place for more research.
:The eBay article is very similar to this page but includes a final  paragraph with her family data. (Did someone copy that into WP, or vice versa?)
:There are some YouTube videos, et al of her and Groucho on the The Dick Cavett Show.
:Google's News archive has articles from The News and Courier of April 24, 1977, from the Reading Eagle of March 21, 1983, and there's also a scan from People (magazine) of May 9th, 1977, all  about the legal battle over Marx' estate. And Entertainment Weekly posted a 15 year retrospective on the trial on May 15, 1992, and mentions her "ill health."
:A few other pieces of original content but of questionable provenance are abourt her relationship with Groucho (prior to her death,) near the bottom of this Groucho article, and a partial scan of her Movie Star (magazine) tell-all story "Loving Groucho Ruined My Life".
:That exhausts the top 100 hits for a Google search of "erin fleming dead|death|suicide" at this time. --Eliyahu S Talk 22:19, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, the suicide ideas seems to be bogus. If she had committed suicide in Los Angeles, the L.A. Times would have had a big story about it, which it did not have. I removed that from the article. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 05:58, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

message: Erin's father was Patrick D. Fleming, who graduated from the US Naval Academy in 1941 and became a naval aviator in 1943.  He finished the war as the fourth-ranking USN fighter ace, went into test flying, and was recruited into the AIr Force in 1947.  He was killed in the crash of the first B-52 bomber in 1956.  His wife Neville died in 1991, according to Finda-a-Grave.

thread_title:  Erin Leslie Fleming or Marilyn Suzanne Fleming? 

message: I am Erin Flemings Brother.  I am younger than she was and there two older than her.  First, she didn't have two dads.  Her father and mine and my brothers was Doctor David Russell Fleming and our mother Evangeline Fleming I have never heard of the two mentioned in this article as fathers but they aren't I don't know where the Leslie came from but her real name is Marilyn Suzanne Fleming.
Curiously, I am on a laptop and my wife is on a desk top yet we both get a different picture on the website.  Huh?
Please take care of this asap.  I can prove who I am if necessary.

thread_title:  Changes to Wikipedia article on Erin Fleming 

message: The section Later life and death begins with these words:
"Fleming was arrested in June 1990 on a suspicion of carrying a concealed loaded firearm when she brought into the West Hollywood sheriff's office."
These words make no sense in any language. I hope someone knowledgeable about the subject can fix this.108.245.209.39 (talk) 02:56, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
