General Philip Sheridan - commanded cavalry of Army of the Potomac, first use of scorched earth tactic by Union forces)William Tecumseh Sherman - succeeded Grant as commander of Union forces in the west.

Beauregard - first commander of the entire Confederate army. Forces under his command fired the opening shots of the war at Fort Sumter.

Killed during the Union Army offensive at the Third Battle of Petersburg.General J. B. Hood - had a reputation for bravery and aggressiveness that sometimes bordered on recklessness. Arguably one of the best brigade and division commanders in the Confederate States Army. Probably promoted beyond his level of competence when he was promoted to lead larger, independent commands late in the war. Disasterously outmaneuvered by Sherman in the Atlanta campaignLt. General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson - one of the most gifted tactical commanders in the nation's history. His Valley Campaign and his envelopment of the Union Army right wing at Chancellorsville are studied worldwide even today as examples of innovative and bold leadership. He excelled as well in other battles: the First Battle of Bull Run (where he received his famous nickname "Stonewall"), Second Bull Run, Antietam, and Fredericksburg. Killed in a "friendly fire" accident at the Battle of ChancellorsvilleGeneral Albert S. Johnston - Given command of western theater operations.

James Longstreet - made significant contributions to the Confederate victories at Second Bull Run, Fredericksburg, and Chickamauga, in both offensive and defensive roles. He also performed strongly during the Seven Days Battles, the Battle of Antietam, and until he was seriously wounded, at the Battle of the Wilderness. Disagreed with General Lee on the tactics to be employed and reluctantly supervised the disastrous infantry assault known as Pickett's Charge.Maj. General J.E.B. Stuart - a cavalry commander known for his mastery of reconnaissance and the use of cavalry in support of offensive operations.Maj. General George E. Pickett - One of Longstreet's generals who led the disastrous "Pickett's charge" at the Battle of Gettysburg.This list is by no means exhaustive, but it should be a good start.
