AN EXTREMELY RARE USE OF A COVER CARRIED FROM NEW ORLEANS TO MOBILE BY THE LOUISIANA RELIEF COMMITTEE.

This cover was smuggled out of Union Occupied New Orleans with the postage paid by the committee and applied at Mobile. From the well known "Reynes" correspondence which was examined by Col. Jules Denis, CSA Provost Marshal at Mobile.

On May 31, 1863, the Louisiana Relief Committee came into existence, established by expatriate New Orleans residents residing in Mobile, Alabama. The committee aimed to ease the hardships faced by impoverished citizens who continued to live in U.S.-occupied New Orleans. Their efforts included organizing shipments of essential supplies, such as food and clothing to New Orleans. Additionally, they assisted citizens in relocating from New Orleans to the Confederate States. (Image1) (Image2)

3036     11 imageConfederacy, 1863, 10¢ blue. Roughly torn, tied by a black "Richmond Va." 1863 cds on cover addressed to Capt. C. ap R. Jones (Catesby ap Roger Jones), C. S. Navy, Selma, Ala., F.-V.F.
Scott No. 11; Estimate $200 - 300.

Catesby ap Roger Jones was born in Fairfield, Virginia, on 15 April 1821. Appointed a Midshipman in the Navy in 1836, he served extensively at sea, receiving promotion to the rank of Lieutenant in 1849. During the 1850s, Jones was involved in development work on Navy weapons and served as ordnance officer on the new steam frigate "Merrimack" when she began active service in 1856.

When Virginia left the Union in April 1861, Lieutenant Jones resigned his U.S. Navy commission, joining the Virginia Navy soon thereafter and becoming a Confederate Navy Lieutenant in June. In 1861-62, he was employed in converting the steam frigate "Merrimack" into an ironclad and was the ship's Executive Officer when she was commissioned as "CSS Virginia". When her Commanding Officer, Captain Franklin Buchanan, was wounded in the 8 March 1862 attack on "USS Cumberland" and "Congress", Jones temporarily took command, leading the ship during her historic engagement with "USS Monitor" on the following day.

With the approach of the enemy troops, Norfolk was being evacuated. The "Virginia" could not be made light enough to go up the James River. To prevent its capture, the "Virginia" was run ashore in the bight of Carney Island and set afire. Later in 1862, he commanded a shore battery at Drewry's Bluff, on the James River, and the gunboat "Chattahoochee" while she was under construction at Columbus, Georgia.

Promoted to the rank of Commander in April 1863, Jones was sent to Selma, Alabama, to take charge of the Ordnance Works there. For the rest of the Civil War, he supervised the manufacture of badly-needed heavy guns for the Confederate armed forces. With the end of the conflict in May 1865, Jones went into private business. After working in South America, he made his residence in Selma, where he was shot down on the streets of Selma, Alabama, June 29th, 1877, by a man whose child had had a fight with one of his children.
