  Should read Leighton Hazelhurst (full name - Leighton Wilson Hazelhurst). Hazelhurst was flying as a passenger in a a Wright Model C airplane piloted by Al Welsh, when the plane crashed in College Park, Maryland on June 11, 1912. Both Welsh and Hazelhurst died in the crash. A National Guard base on Long Island's Hempstead Plains was renamed in his honor to Hazelhurst Field. In 1920, Hazelhurst Field was renamed Curtiss Field, which was merged with adjacent Roosevelt Field in 1929.
