Sometimes on that service you have to wait for the second or third refresh. While we're at it, for a really long, and interesting, account of the early origins of the legend, go here: _http://www.hmssurprise.org/Resources/SIR_CLOUDESLEY_SHOVELL.html_ (http://www.hmssurprise.org/Resources/SIR_CLOUDESLEY_SHOVELL.html) . Assuming it's a legitimate source, there's enough information there to piece together a fairly complete story. -FER 42.0N 87.7W, or 41.4N 72.1W. www.HistoricalAtlas.com/lunars
