USS Albemarle (1863)
USS ''Albemarle'' (1863) was a screw steamer captured by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. She was used by the Union Navy as a ship's tender in support of the Union Navy blockade of Confederate waterways.
== ''Albermarle'' and ''Lion'' seized by Union Navy forces ==
On the morning of 26 March 1862, sidewheel gunboat ''Delaware'' -- during an expedition to the Pungo River in Pamlico Sound, North Carolina, in search of Confederate shipping reported to be there—entered Pantego Creek and found two large schooners at its head . . . "which," he reported, "proved to be the ''Albemarle'' and ''Lion'' owned by Boyle and Richard Reddick, of Suffolk, Virginia."
Two armed boats from the Union warship took possession of the Southern vessels, towed them down stream, and anchored them at the mouth of the creek. Early the next morning, ''Delaware'' received on board several families who professed loyalty to the Union and asked for protection. Later that day, the gunboat and its prizes then proceeded to New Bern, North Carolina.
