[edit] Major source disagreements

I was trying to help this page out when I ran across numerous disagreements, mainly pertaining to casualties.

• www2.cr.nps.gov/abpp/battles/va085.htm (I had to use google's cache on this link)
• http://www.mycivilwar.com/battles/650329.htm

The previous two are particularly off each other's accounts.
The following link might help a lot in the writing of this article:

I have cited casualties from four sources. The mycivilwar.com site is so far out of the mainstream on this that I'd discount it. It doesn't cite any sources for the data. Hal Jespersen (talk) 01:32, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
