Launching Of Monitor Troy's Own Marked 190th Anniversary
This month January 30 marks the 190th anniversary of the Monitor's launching at Greenpoint near Troy. The ironclad famed for Hampton Roads battle on March 9 1862 drew Troy’s early industry into its construction. Winslow Griswold and Rensselaer works supplied parts and armor. An old dispute over the vessel name appeared in Troy Times reports. The Monitor later sank off Cape Hatteras on December 31 1862.
