Pension Records show service on board USS Nightingale.
USS Nightingale (1851) was originally the tea clipper and slave ship Nightingale, launched in 1851. She was captured in Africa in 1861 by Saratoga, taken as a prize and purchased by the United States Navy.
After serving as a supply ship and collier during the American Civil War supporting Union Navy ships blockading the Confederate States of America, Nightingale went on to a long career in Arctic exploration and merchant trading before foundering in the North Atlantic in 1893.
