Ulysses Grant took the surrender of Robert E. Lee at Appomattox Court House. Other generals in his army (though not present at the formal surrender, which was just the two of them) included Phil Sheridan, Gordon Meade and G.K. Warren.
When the British came out to surrender and lay down their arms, Lord Cornwallis sent word that he was "sick" and remained in Yorktown. His deputy commander attempted to proffer his sword to the French general, who pointed him toward General Washington. Washington declined to accept the sword of this subordinate, and pointed him to General Benjamin Lincoln, one of Washington's division commanders. Lincoln had been captured in May 1780, when he had to surrender Charleston SC, and had recently been exchanged. So this formal gesture of surrender was received by Lincoln.This formal ceremony of surrender was on October 19, 1781, two days after the British showed a flag of truce.
The American Civil War officially ended with the surrender of Confederate General Robert E. Lee to Union General Ulysses S. Grant on April 9, 1865, at Appomattox Court House in Virginia. However, there was no formal treaty signed to end the war; the surrender agreement was more of a military capitulation. The last major Confederate forces surrendered in June 1865, and the war's conclusion was marked by a series of surrenders rather than a single treaty.

In early American history, a formal education was considered a privilege reserved for the elite and wealthy individuals. It was not widely accessible to the general population, especially women and minorities. Formal education was primarily focused on academics and classical subjects.
The end of the American Civil War was signaled by the surrender of Confederate General Robert E. Lee to Union General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Court House on April 9, 1865. This event marked a significant turning point, as it effectively led to the collapse of the Confederate Army and the eventual surrender of other Confederate forces. Following Lee's surrender, the war came to a close with President Abraham Lincoln's focus on reunification and healing the nation. The formal conclusion of the war was solidified with the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment, abolishing slavery.
