Clarify[edit]

A few comments in the article made sound vaguely contradictory. Perhaps someone could clarify?

A comment said that the island is actually 159 acres (64 ha). What accounts for the "actual" difference? If that's unknown, then I suggest we drop the precision by a digit (i.e., "about 150 acres").
Another suggested that the island was named in 1791 rather than 1792. Is the year unknown? Was it named on an expedition of 1791-92? It wasn't clear to me what was meant by "1792 (1791)".
