Uss Suwanee

Two ships of the United States Navy have been named USS ''Suwanee'', after the Suwanee River of Georgia and Florida.
  • The first Suwanee was a double-ended side-wheel gunboat commissioned in February 1865, sent in pursuit of Confederate commerce raiders until the end of the Civil War, and wrecked in 1868.
  • Suwanee (ID. No. 1320, dp. 16,240; l. 491'2"; b. 59'1"; dr. 26'; s. 12.9 k.), ex-SS Mark, was built in 1913 by the Bremer-Vulkan Works, Vegesack, Germany, and owned and operated by the North German Lloyd Lines. She was taken over by the United States Shipping Board (USSB) on 11 April 1919 and transferred to the Navy for use as a transport or collier. Although assigned to the 3d Naval District, Suwanee was not commissioned but was returned to the USSB on 4 October 1919 for disposal.
