Within the large parameters of the Confederate military, there were any number of names given to large armies in the US Civil War. For example, two large Southern armies were the Army of Northern Virginia and the Army of Tennessee.
Robert E. Lee - not appointed till January 1865, much too late to make any difference.
Robert E. Lee. There was no such post until January 1865, much too late to make any difference. The Confederate President, Jefferson Davis, had tried to double as General-in-Chief, but was hopelessly out of his depth.
confederate as a word itself is not capitalized unless at the beginning of a sentence, but when talking about the Confederate State of America or any other confederacy then yes.
I'm not sure of any specific ways that France helped the Confederacy. However, many European countries continued to do business with the Confederate States because they wanted to purchase the cotton from them.
There was no official surrender of the 'Confederate Army', as such. The only sizeable Confederate army still in the field was surrendered by Robert E. Lee at Appomattox on April 9th 1865, and this is taken as the effective end of the Civil War. The only other Confederate force of any significance (under Joe Johnston) surrendered later the same month, and other small units in the West continued to skirmish for a while longer. The official dissolution of the Confederacy followed in the summer, though this date is not considered historic.
Robert E Lee was the General in charge of the Army of Northern Virginia, the largest and best-known Confederate Army. In the closing months of the 4 year long war, Lee was made commanding general over all Confederate forces, but this promotion was never in any way effective; the armies under Johnston and others continued in complete independence from Lee.
He was appointed General-in-Chief of the Confederate armies in January 1865 - much too late to make any difference. Before that, there had been no such post. The Confederate President Jefferson Davis considered that he himself ought to be directing the armies, but made a bad job of it.
James Armistead did not have any brothers or sisters. He was an African American slave who served the Continental Army in the American Revolutionary War as a spy and double agent.
Jefferson Davis created a new post of General-in-Chief specially for him - much too late to make any difference.
At no time was Robert E. Lee the president of the Confederate States of America. Robert E. Lee was a general in the Confederate Army, but he never held any political position. The president of the C.S.A was Jefferson Davis.
