USS Quinnebaug (1866)

USS Quinnebaug (1866)

The first USS "Quinnebaug" was a screw Sloop-of-war in the United States Navy.

"Quinnebaug" was built by the New York Navy Yard, launched March 31 1866; sponsored by Lt. Comdr. David B. Harmony; and commissioned July 19 1867, Comdr. Edward Barrett in command.

The new gunboat departed New York on August 31 1867 and cruised along the Atlantic coast of South America for almost three years before returning to Norfolk on July 18 1870. She decommissioned there on the 29th and was laid up until broken up in 1871.
