The Loss Of The Albany.

While doing some researching I ran a cross some names from the USS Albany, I know nothing about the Albany. I began to look on the internet and found a lot on the Albany, but little on the men. But then I know it would be hard to find them for the navy didn’t record the seamen and those of lesser ranks, just the Officers. The number of the crew was 230, the records doesn’t say if the Albany had a full crew when she was lost. I was only able to find the names of 14, men out of the 230. You well find the list after the history of the Albany.

Those of you who have names who were on the Albany when she went down, and would like to add them to this list can do so by writing to me, my address can be found in my profile.
--------------------------------

USS Albany, the first ship with this name, was laid down at the New York Navy Yard sometime in 1843; launched on 27 June 1846; and commissioned on 6 November 1846, Captain Samuel Livingston Breese in command.

The sloop of war put to sea on her first cruise on 26 November 1846 and joined the Home Squadron — then engaged in operations against Mexican forces—on 8 January 1847 at Anton Lizardo. Soon thereafter, however, she departed the Mexican coast for an independent cruise to the vicinity of the Azores. Upon her return to the east coast of Mexico early in March Albany guarded the transport anchorage at Isla Verde in preparation for General Winfield Scott's operations against Veracruz. During the 9 March amphibious action, Albany carried and landed the reserve elements under Brigadier General David E. Twiggs. Since the Mexican leaders chose not to oppose the landings, Albany saw no combat. Later, on 22 March, the sloop of war sent one of her 8 in (200 mm) shell guns and its support personnel ashore to help in the siege of Veracruz.

Veracruz surrendered formally on 29 March, and Albany then moved to the next objective — Alvarado. The Mexican forces, however, had already abandoned that port; and Lieutenant Charles G. Hunter, commanding Scourge, arrived first and took possession of the town. Albany, therefore, soon headed for another target — Tuxpan. She and the other ships of the squadron arrived at the mouth of the Tuxpan River on the morning of 17 April. Capt. Breese—commanding Albany — then formed his landing party of over 1,500 sailors and marines drawn from all ships in the squadron. They embarked in the barges and the six ships chosen to ascend the river and capture Tuxpan. Albany herself did not participate in the action though her captain and some of her crewmen did. From 18–22 April, the force moved up the river, engaged and captured two artillery batteries, destroyed fortifications and military equipment at Tuxpan, and then retired down the river to rejoin the squadron. When the American warships dispersed to various blockade stations along the eastern coast of Mexico, Albany and Reefer remained off the mouth of the Tuxpan River.

Then, after service on the blockade at various other points, Albany arrived off the mouth of the Tabasco River by 13 June. Once again, her deep draft precluded the ship's actual participation in the ascent of the river. However, as in the Tuxpan operation, members of her crew joined the expedition. The movement upriver began late in the first dog watch on 14 June. In two days, the American force ascended the river, disembarked the landing force, routed the defenders on the approaches to Tabasco, and captured the town. The Americans remained there until 22 July, when yellow fever and ever braver Mexican troops forced the evacuation of the town.

In the meantime, Albany headed home for repairs. She departed the Mexican coast on 11 July and arrived in Hampton Roads, Virginia on 6 August. From there, she soon moved north to Boston where she completed her repairs on 27 September. On 10 October, the sloop of war put to sea to return to the Gulf of Mexico and served along the Mexican coast on blockade duty again until March 1848, when she was detached and sent to Venezuela to protect American citizens there during a highly volatile constitutional crisis in that country. With the Mexican-American War at an end, Albany began cruising the Caribbean-West Indies region. That duty lasted until 12 September 1848, when she returned to Norfolk.

Between 15 November 1848 and the latter part of 1853, the sloop of war made three more extended deployments in the Caribbean-West Indies area as a unit of the Home Squadron. On 12 December 1853, Albany set sail from Boston, Mass., on the final mission of her career. After several months sailing among the islands of the West Indies and along the coast of Central America, she departed Aspinwall, Colombia (now Colon, Panama) on 29 September 1854. She was never heard from again and was listed as lost at sea with all hands.

Samuel Hambleton.

Samuel Hambleton, was a Purser and was wounded on September 10, 1813, in the engagement between the American and British fleets on Lake Erie, while acting as a volunteer, commanding a division of guns on board the United States brig Lawrence. He put in for a pension and received a pension of that of a Purser.

Authors note. The committee found that he let to many years to pass before asking fore a pension. The committee was most grateful for his service, but as many of the events may have faded from his mind and those that may be able to back his claim may no longer be left. Therefore the committee states his application could not be granted.
------------------------------

George Budd.

Captain Budd, while a lieutenant on board the frigate Chesapeake, was wounded, on the 1st day of June, 1813, in the disastrous engagement with the British frigate Shannon, while gallantly performing his duty.

Shortly after he received the wound he applied at the Department, and was informed that the law did not authorize the grant of a pension to any officer who remained in the service.

At the present session, on the application of Captain T A. C. Jones, a bill was reported from this committee granting a pension to Captain Jones, under circumstances not distinguishable in principle from the case of Captain Budd; which bill has become a law.

The committee, therefore, consider the principle to be sanctioned. Considering the facts set forth in the memorial of Captain Budd to be fully made out in proof and that his case is entirely within the principle of Captain Jones’ case, the committee herewith report a bill similar in its provisions to the bill passed in favor of Captain Jones.

Asel Wilkinson, in his statement, verified by oath, represents that he joined the squadron on Lake Erie, under the command of Captain Perry, in April, 1313, as a pilot; that he first served on board of the schooner Somers, whence he was transferred to the Arid; that he continued to serve in that capacity until the surrender of the British fleet; and that he was in the battle of the 10th of September, 1813.
