George Dixon George Dixon, the H. L. Hunley's commander, was a young and athletic man with sandy blond hair. Forensic analysis places Dixon in his mid-twenties. However, his responsibility on the Hunley was what would have been expected of an experienced veteran.
	Joseph Ridgaway Joseph Ridgaway was second-in-command the night the H. L. Hunley became the first successful combat submarine in world history, a feat that would have no doubt made his father proud.
	Arnold Becker Arnold Becker was not a native of the South. He was not even born in America. In fact, when he became a crewmember of the world's first successful combat submarine, he had not been living in the United States for very long.
	Lumpkin We only know his last name. Perhaps in his early forties, Lumpkin was one of the oldest crewmembers of the H. L. Hunley and sat at the second crank position. Currently, little is known about him, except the strenuous lifestyle the forensic analysis points to.
	Frank Collins Collins was a towering figure, even for today's standards, measuring over 6 feet in height. The largest and possibly the strongest crewmember onboard, he volunteered to man the third crank of the Hunley, an experimental underwater vessel that would become the world's first successful combat submarine.
	Miller The man we know only as Miller may be the most elusive member of the crew of the H. L. Hunley, the world's first successful combat submarine. About him we know only a few sketchy details. Miller stood 5 feet 8 inches tall, above average for a man of the Nineteenth Century.
	J.F. Carlsen He was a European by birth. He seems to have been drawn to danger and adventure. Before he lost his life on the H. L. Hunley at approximately 20-23 years of age, he had crossed the Atlantic, run the blockade surrounding the South, and been part of a crew taken over by a mutiny.
	James A. Wicks He experienced his share of danger throughout his life, and even survived a famous maritime battle during the Civil War, while serving as a Union sailor. Thanks to information available from his family as well as Union records, we know a good deal about Wicks.
