The listed coordinates appear to be wrong. They would place the battle much too far to the north-east. Fornadan (t) 09:23, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You are right. The proper coordinates are 36|55|00|N|76|26|06|W. Infoplease lists the incorrect coordinates for Pig Point Virginia (Cape), the only Pig Point in Virginia which is listed. Those were the erroneous coordinates in the article. Perhaps those coordinates correspond to the Maryland Pig Point location across the Potomac River from Virginia. In any event, your perceptive comment has led to the change, which I think is now correct. Donner60 (talk) 01:49, 7 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
