Fate
Shiloh saw no service before being laid up in 1866 at Mound City, Illinois. On 15 June 1869, she was renamed USS Iris. In the same year, she was moved to New Orleans and laid up there. On 17 September 1874, the monitor was commissioned; but she saw no significant service before she was decommissioned on 5 October 1874 and again laid up at New Orleans on 15 October 1874. She was sold later that year.
