Talk:Point Hicks

Your 2 pages have conflicting information regarding Point Hicks and who supposedly sighted it first.

On the following link http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia it states "...The voyage of discovery was very successful, because they found New Zealand and sailed right around it. Then they sailed westward. At last, a boy, William Hicks, who was up the mast spotted land on the horizon. Captain Cook named that bit of land Point Hicks...."

This following link http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_Hicks credits Zachary Hicks for its name.

Which is correct?
