USS ''Fort Henry'' (1862) was a steamer purchased by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. She was used by the Union Navy primarily as gunboat stationed off Confederate ports to prevent their trading with foreign countries. ''Fort Henry'' was purchased 25 March 1862 at New York City; and commissioned 3 April 1862, Acting Lieutenant J. C. Walsh in command. == Successful operations with the East Gulf Blockade == Assigned to the East Gulf Blockading Squadron, ''Fort Henry'' arrived at Key West, Florida, 2 June 1862 for blockade duty in the vicinity of St. George Sound and the Cedar Keys. Highly successful in apprehending blockade runners, she took one sloop in 1862, and in 1863, took four schooners, four sloops, and one smaller craft. In April 1863, with ''St. Lawrence'' and ''Sagamore'', she made an expedition to scour the coast between the Suwanee River and Anclote Keys. A sloop was taken off Bayport, Florida, 9 April, where the group engaged an enemy battery and set a schooner flaming with its fire.
