Abstract:

The CSS Neuse was an ironclad built at Kinston between 1862 and 1864. Although her career in service might be called less than glorious, the ship represented the newest technology of its time. The scuttled ship was raised from the river bottom in 1965, and the remains are displayed at the CSS Neuse State Historic Site in Kinston.
