CSS George Page

CSS George Page, a 410-ton sidewheel steamship, was originally built as a transport at Washington, D.C. in 1853.

In June 1861 Virginia transferred her vessels to the Confederate States Navy and George Page, commanded by Lieutenant Charles Carroll Simms, CSN, was fitted out for river defense service, and sometime later renamed City of Richmond.

George Page was destroyed by her crew upon abandonment of the Evansport batteries on March 9, 1862.
