Does anyone out there have any information on Capt. Henry A. Durivage, who I believe hailed from Lowell, and who was killed in the Civil War on April 23, 1862 when he fell (for reasons unknown) off a vessel (one of 47 in Farragut’s fleet) going up the Mississippi to eventually take New Orleans. Durivage was commissioned Feb. 20, 1862 to lead the Third Massachusetts Unattached Cavalry and was heading down south as part of Butler’s Light Cavalry. I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has any information on Henry or his family. Thanks! Sam Katz — samkatznyc@gmail.com
