USS Contoocook was a screw sloop-of-war built for the United States Navy during the American Civil War. She is named after a river and village in New Hampshire. She was launched Template:Nowr at Portsmouth Navy Yard and commissioned Template:Nowr, commanded by Captain George Balch.
Her first cruise, as flagship of the North Atlantic Squadron, took her to the West Indies, where she patrolled extensively for the protection of American interests during 1868 and 1869. Her name was changed to Albany on Template:Nowr. After another cruise to the West Indies in the fall of that year, Albany was placed out of commission on Template:Nowr. She served as a quarantine ship at New York until sold Template:Nowr.
