The first USS Cumberland was a 50-gun sailing frigate of the United States Navy. She was the first ship sunk by the ironclad CSS Virginia. Cumberland began in the pages of a Congressional Act. Congress passed in 1816 "An act for the gradual increase of the Navy of the United States." The act called for the U.S. to build several ships-of-the-line and several new frigates, of which Cumberland was to be one. Money issues, however, prevented Cumberland from being finished in a timely manner. It was not until Secretary of the Navy Abel Parker Upshur came to office that the ship was finished. A war scare with Britain led Upshur to order the completion of several wooden sailing ships and for the construction of new steam powered ships.

rdfs:comment	La USS Cumberland fu una fregata della marina degli Stati Uniti. La sua impostazione risale al 1824, come frutto di una decisione del Congresso degli Stati Uniti del 1816. Vista la carenza di fondi, però, la nave venne lasciata sullo scalo per quasi vent'anni, fino a che una possibile minaccia di guerra con l'Inghilterra non fece decidere per il completamento di alcune navi a vela da affiancare alle costruende navi a vapore.La sua linea, decisamente derivata da quella delle precedenti USS Chesapeake e Congress, era a due ponti (per quanto fosse classificata come fregata) ed era stata creata per sovrastare in potenza le unità similari europee con i suoi 50 cannoni da 32 libbre.
