Talk:Battle of White Plains

Vandalism
Someone has vandalised this page, citing the battle as an American victory, replacing American casualty numbers without citing reliable sources and altering the text of the article. I have made some changes, but the article still needs work. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.28.237.200 (talk) 22:26, 2 March 2008 (UTC)


 * This page, along with Harlem Heights which also keeps being vandalised to an American victory SHOULD be locked to established users only (Trip Johnson (talk) 19:49, 6 April 2008 (UTC))

Something about the Map of the Battle seems wrong
I realize that the map pictured is from a historical source, but it is completely inaccurate. It portrays Byram Pond (or as it's known now, Byram Lake) as directly East of White Plains, however it is actually several miles to the Northeast. Terry Town (now know as Tarrytown) is depicted as Southwest of White Plains, but it's actually Northwest of it. Its placed where Ossining should be located. Dobbs Ferry appears to be in the correct place relatively, however. Very strange. Based on the map it appears the battle actually took place in Chappaqua. Was Chappaqua considered part of White Plains in this time? 104.246.3.125 (talk) 07:52, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
