Gunpowder, Treason and Plot - S2-E10

Factual error: The Battle of Monmouth is shown. There are no leaves on the trees even though the battle was fought in June. In fact it was so hot there were more British casualties from the heat than from battle. It looks like it was filmed on a very cold day in autumn.

Hard Boiled - S2-E2

Other mistake: Simcoe is in a shop with several other redcoats. They are making jokes at him. He receives a package with a knife inside. While he is inspecting the knife one of the off camera soldiers that is joking makes the screeching sound from Psycho. I though I was hearing things at first and replayed it to make sure. (03:41:00)

Suggested correction: It seems more coincidental that it sounded like the screeching from "Psycho" because he had a knife, but the guy was making more of squealing pig noise in reference to the voluptuous woman the guy met, not a noise about the knife.

Pilot - S1-E1

Question: How does Abraham know to go to the Connecticut Coast to sell his cabbage? I get that he was looking to sell it on the black market and was surprised to find his friend. But it seems his trip was unplanned and due to Anna's husband being arrested. And it seems he had no signal or password to find the buyer/black market dealer.
