Courts Martial Proceedings
Transcribed from the transcripts of the proceedings of general courts martial and courts of inquiries held in the West Gulf Blockading Squadron, tales from the Civil War Navy that you'll never read about in a history book. Most of these cases where the defendant plead not guilty have blow-by-blow accounts of events that took place aboard ships and ashore and offer a different view into life into the Navy of that era.
The laws that govern the Navy when these trials took place was not the UCMJ, but rather the "Articles for the Government of the United States Navy". The 1800 Act was in force until 31 August 1863 and after that date, the 1862 Act.
As an upfront warning, these transcripts are uncensored and as such do contain profanity and racist language. Abbreviations for ranks were transcribed as-is despite them not meeting modern Navy style usage.
