USS Maria Denning (1858)
USS ''Maria Denning'' (1858) was a steamer acquired by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. She was used by the Union Navy for various tasks, including carrying supplies, prisoners of war, and acting as a receiving ship for newly enlisted sailors or for sailors whose ship was sunk.
Sidewheel steamer ''Maria Denning'', built at Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1858, was purchased by the Navy in 1861 for service as a transport, Comdr. Benjamin H. Dove in command.
==A diversified role for an auxiliary ship ==
Destined to carry provisions and stores, ''Maria Denning'' arrived at Cairo, Illinois, from St. Louis, Missouri, 26 November 1861, having dispersed two to four hundred Confederate cavalry at Price’s Landing en route. She was used as receiving ship at Cairo from 3 November 1861 to 1 April 1862, and protected Fort Holt from night attack by Confederate gunboats early in December 1861.
In November 1862, ''Maria Denning'' took prisoners on board at Helena, Arkansas, before departing for Vicksburg, Mississippi.
