 Washington biographer Rupert Hughes determined that Rev.Gano served with George Clinton's army, not with Washington's, that the location is sometimes given as Valley Forge and sometimes as the Potomac River, that there is no documentation of Gano ever being at Valley Forge, that there is nothing in Gano's own correspondence or his biography to suggest that the event took place, and that none of the 42 reputed witnesses ever documented the event.In William Jewell College in Liberty, Missouri there is a painting of Gano baptizing Washington.
