William Harwar Parker
William Harwar Parker (October 8, 1826 – December 30, 1896) was an officer in the United States Navy and later in the Confederate States Navy. His auto-biography, entitled ''Recollections of a Naval Officer 1841-1865'', provides a unique insight into the United States Navy of the mid-19th century during an era when the Age of Sail was coming to an end and the advent of steam power and ironclads was beginning.
==Early life and entrance to the Navy==
He was born in New York City, the son of Commodore Foxhall A. Parker, Sr. and Sarah Jay Bogardus (b. 1794), daughter of Robert Bogardus (1771–1841). Commodore Foxhall A. Parker, Jr., was his brother.
William H. Parker became a United States Navy midshipman at the early age of 15, recalling in his biography that he had held his father's hand while being escorted to his first ship.
Parker's appointment date as a Midshipman was on October 19, 1841, just after his 15th birthday. His first assignment was to the receiving ship USS ''North Carolina'', and he reported on board October 27 when the ship was moored at New York City.
