Where did Confederate Jefferson Davis meet his generals to discuss General Lee's surrender at Appomattox?
After President Jefferson Davis had escaped from Richmond, he met with generals PT Beauregard and Joseph Johnston to discuss continuing the war despite the fact that Lieutenant General Robert E. Lee had surrendered to General US Grant at the Appomattox Court House in Virginia. Davis wanted to continue the war. They met on April 12, 1865 in Greensboro, North Carolina. Both generals had just left Raleigh and the meeting with Davis was somber. Beauregard and Johnston informed Davis that to continue the war was hopeless.

Shiloh Church was a tiny meeting-place at Pittsburg Landing on the Tennessee River, where U.S. Grant and Sherman were caught napping in April 1862 by the Confederates under Sidney Johnston, having believed there were no enemy troops nearer than Corinth. The Union army was nearly pushed into the river, but the Confederates unwisely called a halt for the night, and by morning Grant was receiving reinforcements. They succesfully drove-off the enemy, and Johnston was killed. It was the first major Union victory, and Grant acquired important credibility that would eventually take him to the job of General-in-Chief.
