Which Port Royal are you talking about?

Latest comment: 16 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

En route south, she chased and overtook the cotton-laden sloop Aurelia off Mosquito Inlet, Florida, on March 23, captured her and sent her to Port Royal.

This is where an inline citation would come in handy, because it would make no sense for a cotton-laden sloop leaving the Confederacy to be captured by the Union and sent to Port Royal on the British-held island of Jamaica.

The only Port Royal mentioned on the Port Royal disambiguation page that was in the Union was Port Royal, Pennsylvania, which was rather far inland. The others in what is now the Unites States were in the then-Confederate States of South Carolina and Virginia.

Can this be clarified?
