No, they are considered separate, but are both part of the same Operation Stalemate. The 1st Marine Division ("The Old Breed") invaded Peleliu beginning on 15 September 1944. Two days later, the US Army 81st Infantry Division ("Wildcat Division") invaded Angaur. Angaur had a much smaller garrison, and was secured within a few days. At the same time, the Marines on Peleliu were running into much heavier resistance than anticipated. Two regiments of the 81st were transferred to Peleliu to relieve the Marines and continue the battle. The third regiment of the 81st proceeded north to secure the atoll of Ulithi. Once Ulithi was secured, the remaining 81st ID troops returned to Peleliu to participate in mopping up operations.

Is the Battle of Fredericksville and the Battle of Fredericksburg the same battle?

The US Civil War battle near Fredericksburg, VA is, unsurprisingly, called the "Battle of Fredericksburg". "Battle of Fredericksville" is probably just an error; Google doesn't turn it up in the first several pages (there are results, they just all call it "Battle of Fredericksburg"), leading me to conclude that either:Yes, they're the same thing, and some people are just using the wrong name.No, they're different, but the "Battle of Fredericksville," whatever it was, was relatively insignificant.
