When visiting my in-laws in Princeton, NJ, I took a look at the site of
the Battle of Princeton. My recollection is that the British dead were
buried in a mass grave, and that the site of the grave is fairly well
known, to the extent that historians are confident it is within a small
and defined area, now a grove of trees. There is not and never was any
sort of marker commemmorating and identifying the exact site.
Is this any help?
