What was the place General Robert E. Lee surrendered to General Grant at?

Robert E. Lee surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia to Grant at Appomattox Court House, Virginia. The exact place was in the parlor in the home of one Wilmer McLean. McLean had moved his family away from their home near Manassas shortly after the First Battle of Bull Run. A move to get away from the fighting that would ultimately put him in the path of it once again.


What were the number of troops involved in the Second Battle of Bull Run?

At the time of the US Civil War, very often troops numbers were not always an exact number. One reason for this was on the Confederate side, at least, their record keeping was not always accurate. The Union's troop numbers are deemed by historians to have much better accuracy. Also, very often the number of casualties and battle deaths were also not easy to account for. Wounded soldiers who later died, often were not so easy to track.With all that said, the round numbers of troops involved in the Second Battle of Bull Run were as follows: A. Union forces under General John Pope numbered 70,000; and B. Confederate forces under General Robert E. Lee numbered 55,000.


How big was the Union Army?

The Union army was nearly twice as large as the Confederate army in the US Civil War. The confederate army had a strength of 1,064,000 troops while the Union Army had a strength of roughly 2,100,000 troops.

Why didn't General Lee know the exact position of the Union army?

Presumably you're talking about Gettysburg. He didn't know where the Union troops were because his cavalry corps were trying to reconnoitre the whole way round the enemy, which took them two days, in which interval Lee was out of touch with them.
