USS Fernandina (1861)
USS ''Fernandina'' (1861) was a bark purchased by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. She was used by the Union Navy as a patrol vessel, operating in Confederate waterways.
''Fernandina'', a bark, was purchased 29 July 1861 at New York City as ''Florida''; and renamed and commissioned 16 November 1861, Acting Volunteer Lieutenant G.W Browne in command.
== Operating with the North Atlantic Blockade ==
''Fernandina'' reported for duty in the North Atlantic Blockading Squadron at Hampton Roads, Virginia, 2 December 1861, and was ordered south to duty on the blockade of Wilmington, North Carolina. On 13 December, she scattered a Confederate encampment on the beach near Little River Inlet, North Carolina, and 12 days later she took prize ''William H. Northrop'', running the blockade with a cargo of drugs and coffee.
The bark discovered the schooner ''Kate'' out of Nassau, Bahamas, run aground on 2 April 1862, and after taking her papers off, burned the schooner, since both ''Fernandina'' and her party boarding the blockade runner were under Confederate fire from the shore.
