USS Fawn (1863)
The USS ''Fawn'' was a steamer purchased by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. She was used by the Union Navy as a patrol and escort vessel, operating in Confederate waterways.
''Fawn'', a stern wheel steamer, was launched in 1863 at Cincinnati, Ohio, as ''Fanny Barker''. She was commissioned 11 May 1863 and purchased by the Navy 13 May 1863, Acting Master J. R. Grace in command. She was renamed ''Fawn'' 19 June 1863.
== Supporting operations on various Confederate waterways ==
Throughout the remainder of the Civil War, ''Fawn'' patrolled the Mississippi, Tennessee, White and Arkansas Rivers, also convoying Union Army transports, ferrying troops across rivers, carrying Army payrolls, and often engaging Confederate batteries, cavalry, and foot soldiers ashore.
For much of her career, she served in the White River, convoying transports and shelling Confederate positions threatening Union troop concentrations.
