USS Rodolph (1863)
USS ''Rodolph'' (1863) was a steamer commissioned by the Union Navy during the American Civil War.
She served the Union Navy during her struggle against the Confederate States of America, both as a tugboat and a minesweeper, as well as a gunboat when the occasion demanded.
Unfortunately for ''Rodolph'', just as the war was ending, she struck a mine and sank, with four of her crew killed and a number of others wounded.
== Built in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1863 ==
''Rodolph'' (''Gunboat No. 48''), a stern-wheel steamer built in 1863 at Cincinnati, Ohio, was purchased by the Navy there on 31 December 1863 for service in the Mississippi Squadron. However, the installation of her "tinclad" armor and fitting out were slow. When she was finally ready for active service, she was transferred to Admiral David Farragut's West Gulf Blockading Squadron which was then preparing for the invasion of Mobile Bay.
