Edwin Maffitt Anderson
Edwin Maffitt Anderson (died January 28, 1923) was a Confederate naval officer, serving on board the shipping raiders CSS ''Alabama'' and CSS ''Sumter'' as well as the master of the blockade runner CSS ''Owl''.
==Biography==
Born in Georgia, Anderson entered the Confederate Navy in October 1861, enlisting as a master's mate and being promoted within a month to midshipman. Briefly serving under Captain Raphael Semmes aboard the CSS ''Savannah'', he was sent across the Atlantic and, in August 1862, joined the ''Alabama'' in the Azores just before its official commission and would remain aboard the commerce raider throughout its entire career. Wounded during the battle with the USS ''Kearsarge'' on June 19, 1864, in which the ''Alabama'' was sunk, Anderson was rescued by the ''Deerhound'', a British yacht, and taken to England.
On his return to the Confederacy, he encountered the blockade runner ''Owl'' and agreed to joined its crew as an acting master and, by the end of the war, had won promotion to lieutenant. Anderson would later reside in Savannah, Georgia, where he lived until his death on January 28, 1923.
