Cutter History:
The second cutter Gallatin was probably built in Baltimore, Maryland and was stationed in Charleston, South Carolina. There is no record of her beyond 1824.
The Gallatin and the cutter South Carolina (built in Baltimore and entered service in 1815-1816) may have been the same vessel.
