Index of Civil War Naval Forces

This directory of Civil War Naval online historical resources is a good starting point for research into the subject. “...Organized by topic, there are links to pages on all major and many minor battles and operations (excerpts from the weighty but indispensable Official Records feature heavily here), officer biographies, and genealogical information, including links to Web pages on ordering the military records of family members. The ships are not neglected; links to appropriate pages from The Dictionary of American Fighting Ships - itself a superb resource - are listed, and to make the experience of the war more personal, one can read about the lives of the sailors themselves at sea.”
