Redirects
CSS Virginia 2 should redirect here -- 65.94.79.6 (talk) 23:20, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

She was never called Virginia II during the war
All the contemporaneous documentation I can find calls her Virginia. The "II" was apparently added much later in an effort to lessen confusion with the much more famous CSS Virginia. But, I don't think we ought to state incorrect information here just to reduce confusion. We can certainly add a note to explain the difference. Ruedetocqueville (talk) 20:00, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
