Abstract:
The C.S.S. NEUSE, a Confederate ironclad constructed in Kinston, has been recovered. The ship sank in 1865 when Union soldiers invaded Kinston and Joseph H. Price, the boat's commander, ordered the vessel destroyed to prevent capture. The ship, currently scheduled for restoration work, was excavated in 1961.
