This blog grew out of my "Down Da Road I Go Blog," which was originally to be about stuff I was interested in, music and what I was doing. There was so much history and Civil War entries, I spun two more off. Starting Jan. 1, 2012, I will be spinning a Naval blog off this one called "Running the Blockade."

MCCWRT Discussion Group Meets Saturday: Topic is Mobile Bay
The McHenry County Civil War Round Table discussion group will meet tomorrow, March 26, at 10 a.m. at Panera Bread in Crystal lake, Illinois.
The topic of discussion will be Mobile, Alabama and Mobile Bay.
I have been doing some research into the Confederate submarine Pioneer II (American Diver) which sank near Fort Morgan in 1863 and was used as the model for the H.L. Hunley.
Plus, there were a lot of Union ships, not just the monitor, that were sunk by Confederate torpedoes.
