There was not an effective naval intelligence service during the Civil War. Yet\, one successful participant was Major William Norris\, CSA. Another was seamstress and Union spy Mary Louvestre\, a free Black\, of Norfolk. She sent secret messages to Union commanders at Fort Monroe about the USS Merrimack’s transformation into the ironclad CSSVirginia．联邦和邦联需要rely on such clandestine information as northern and southern newspapers provided ample material\, usually in a boastful manner. All antagonists had to do was to obtain a copy of The New York Times or Mobile Register to find all they needed to know about ironclad development.\n\n\n\n\nVirtual Civil War and Hampton Roads History Lecture:\nNaval Intelligence in Hampton Roads (1861 – 1862)\nFriday\, November 19\, 2021 • 12 PM (ET)\n\n\nImage credit: Colonel William Norris (1820–1896)\, Chief Signal Officer\, Confederate States Army\, ca. 1861-65.
