The Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships Sandusky article mentions only the Sandusky River as a namesake, implying that both USS Sandusky (1865) and USS Sandusky (PF-54). Actually, only USS Sandusky of 1865 was named for the river. All Tacoma-class patrol frigates were named after small cities – for example, see Russell, Richard A., Project Hula: Secret Soviet-American Cooperation in the War Against Japan, Washington, D.C.: Naval Historical Center, 1997, ISBN 0-945274-35-1, p. 22 – and PF-54 was named after the city of Sandusky, Ohio.
