While researching this man (whom I had never heard of) I found that there had been a short-lived blog on him dating back to 2008. It was titled "Timby and the Monitor."
It was written by Theodore Walcott Dickes, writer and great great grandson of Theodore Ruggles Timby who he described as the forgotten inventor of the U.S.S. Monitor's revolving turret and of Civil War fame.
Mr. Dickes was living in Encinitas, California, at the time.
His reason for writing the blog was to bring forth information of Timby and make his accomplishments known.
Unfortunately, there were only six blog entries.
I will be taking a look at them.
