Why is the article included in the class "Massachusetts in the American Civil War"? The only possible connection I see is the ship's name, and that is doubtful. As she was originally a commercial vessel intended for work on the Ohio River, it is more likely that she was named for Lexington, Kentucky. Granted, Lexington, KY was named for Lexington, MA, but that's a pretty tenuous connection. If I have overlooked something, I will withdraw my objection, but if no one protests, I will remove the category listing as soon as I learn how to do it.PKKloeppel (talk) 12:52, 29 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
