Divers misidentify Civil War gunboat wreck in Tennessee river
In Ashville Tennessee a group named Raise the Gunboat spent eight years seeking permission to raise a Union gunboat sunk during the Civil War. Archaeologist Stephen James of Panamerica Maritime says the wreck is a later barge dating 1875 to 1925, not the Tawah gunboat. The Navy may bar raising Civil War river vessels as federal property.
