USS Maumee (1863)
USS ''Maumee'' was a steamer purchased by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. With her heavy guns, she was planned by the Union Navy for use as a bombardment gunboat, but also as a gunboat stationed off Confederate waterways to prevent their trading with foreign countries.
''Maumee'' was launched by the New York Navy Yard 2 July 1863; and commissioned 29 September 1864. Lt. Comdr. Ralph Chandler in command.
== Assigned to the North Atlantic Blockade ==
The new gunboat sailed for Hampton Roads, Virginia, 2 October and joined the North Atlantic Blockading Squadron there on the 8th. She got underway on the 26th, seeking Confederate cruiser ''CSS Tallahassee'' then preying on northern merchantmen near Boston, Massachusetts. After steaming as far north as Halifax, Nova Scotia, she returned to New York City, 8 November, en route back to Hampton Roads, Virginia, to prepare for an attack on Fort Fisher which protected Wilmington, North Carolina.
