USS Susan Ann Howard (1863)

USS Susan Ann Howard (1863)

USS "Susan Ann Howard" (1863) was a schooner requisitioned from the prize court by the Union Navy during the Union blockade of the American Civil War.

"Susan Ann Howard" was used by the Union Navy for a number of minor roles: storeship, ammunition ship, and collier. She did not remain in service long.

Civil War service

Few facts exist concerning "Susan Ann How"ard, a center board schooner purchased by the Union Navy from the New York City Prize Court on 19 May 1863.

Usually referred to as "Susan A. Howard", the ship was listed on 5 June 1864 as one of a group of schooners serving on the sounds of North Carolina, presumably at New Bern, North Carolina, as ordnance and store vessels.

On 7 July, she was at New Bern serving as an ordnance boat. On 7 September, she was listed as a hulk and serving as a coal schooner.

Post-war decommissioning

On 30 August, the schooner was ordered to Washington, D.C.; and "Susan Ann Howard" was sold at the Washington Navy Yard on 15 September to H. F. Hammil.
