[edit] Battle of Roubaix

The original reference to Hadfield's injury at the soi disant "Battle of Roubaix" in 1794 came from the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. However, I can find no other reference to such a battle anywhere. However, Roubaix is near to Tourcoing and the Battle of Tourcoing (1794) has to be the prime suspect. Of course, the source of that little bit of research is Wikipedia! I shall just go ahead and change it, leaving this as a trail. Cutler 23:59, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
