Old Dominion (American Seagoing Barge, 1872).
Served as USS Old Dominion (ID # 3025) in 1917-1919

Old Dominion, a 1802 gross ton seagoing barge, had been built as a steamship at Wilmington, Delaware, in 1872. The U.S. Navy acquired her in October 1917 and the following August placed her in service as USS Old Dominion (ID # 3025). She was employed transporting coal along the U.S. East Coast during the remaining months of World War I and into the post-war era. Old Dominion was inactivated in April 1919 and sold in October of that year.

This page features our only views of the barge Old Dominion and of USS Old Dominion (ID # 3025).
