USS Kearsarge Decking Relic

Wooden decking fragment attributed to the USS Kearsarge. The accompanying printed identification states that the wood was removed from the vessel’s deck during repairs at the Boston Navy Yard in January 1865. An aged handwritten label affixed directly to the fragment further identifies its association with the Kearsarge.

 

The USS Kearsarge is remembered for defeating the Confederate commerce raider CSS Alabama off Cherbourg, France, on June 19, 1864. This labeled fragment offers a tangible connection to one of the most celebrated vessels of the Civil War’s naval conflict.
