I was reading Connie Willis's Lincoln's Dreams the other day and had occasion to look up reviews of the book at Amazon. I found an amusing typo in one of them.
The book is about a young woman who's reliving or channeling Robert E. Lee's dreams, so there's a good deal of history about Lee's location at specific points during the war; his horse Traveller was his constant companion. Unfortunately, one of the reviewers inadvertently called the horse Trigger.
Oops.

Also in the Roy Rogers Museum are Buttermilk, Bullet, and even Nellybelle.
