The ship fought during the Civil War, and was an important combatant during the battles at Fort Fisher. The ship was named Iosco after a Native American word meaning "water of light," the namesake for Iosco County, Michigan. Commissioned in April 1864, she protected shipping in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence during that summer. She assisted several ships caught in heavy storms. On 15 September, Iosco towed the General Burnside, which had been stuck on a reef. and was then sent to join the North Atlantic Blockading Squadron.
