High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! USS Kittatinny (1861) was a schooner acquired by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. She was used by the Union Navy as a gunboat in support of the Union Navy blockade of Confederate waterways. Assigned to the Gulf Blockading Squadron, she departed the Delaware River 20 December and reached Key West, Florida, 10 days later. An active blockader in the Gulf of Mexico, she shared in the capture of Major Barbour attempting to slip through the blockade with a cargo of gunpowder, niter, sulfur, percussion caps, and lead for the Confederate Army. She took schooner Julio near Barataria, Louisiana, 11 May and captured schooner Emma 27 September. Schooner Matilda fell prey to the vigilant Union blockader off Matagarda Bay, Texas, 25 November; and schooner Diana was taken the next day. Kittatinny took sloop D. Sargent off Galveston, Texas, 12 March 1863 shortly before sailing to New York City for repairs.
