USS Berberry (1864)
USS ''Berberry'' (1864) was a steam-powered tugboat acquired by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. She was used by the Navy to patrol navigable waterways of the Confederacy to prevent the South from trading with other countries.
On August 13, 1864 at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the Navy purchased ''Columbia'', a wooden-hulled screw steamer built there earlier that year. The Navy renamed her ''Berberry'', and she was placed in commission at the Philadelphia Navy Yard on September 12, 1864, Acting Ensign Milton Griffith in command.
==Assigned to the North Atlantic Blockade==
After about a fortnight’s towing duty that took her to Fort Monroe and Baltimore, Maryland, ''Berberry'' departed Philadelphia on September 29 and reached Beaufort, North Carolina, on October 1 for duty in the North Atlantic Blockading Squadron. Two days later, she took station off the New Inlet entrance to North Carolina’s Cape Fear River where she labored to help tighten the blockade of Wilmington, North Carolina.
