Talk:Cape Fear River

message: The Neuse River is a major permanent stream rising in the piedmont of North Carolina, emptying into the Pamlico Sound below New Bern. Its total length is approx. 373 km (232 mi), and its drainage basin, measuring 14,582 km² in area, lies entirely inside the state of North Carolina. 
Above copied from Wikipedia response on Neuse river.  Length is 30 miles longer than listed for Cape Fear River.
below from response to query of Cape Fear River.
The Cape Fear River is a 202-mile (325 km) long blackwater river in east central North Carolina in the United States. It is the longest river entirely within North Carolina, and it flows into the Atlantic Ocean near Cape Fear, from which it takes its name. 
Don't know which is correct.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tim mp128 (talk • contribs) 00:48, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Looks to me like the Neuse is the longest river entirely in the state, but the Cape Fear has the largest drainage basin completely within the state. The Columbia Gazetteer entry on the Cape Fear River seems to be in error, saying it is the longest. Compare their pages on Cape Fear River and Neuse River. Other sources such as this one and this other one seem to confirm the numbers. I'll make some edits to the pages here. Good catch. Pfly (talk) 03:28, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
