On May 27, 1865, President Andrew Johnson proclaims a general amnesty to those who rebelled against Federal authority during the US Civil War. There were some exceptions, however, as those who held high rank in the Confederate government and military had to apply for individual pardons. Also, this included all Southerners who owned over $20,000 of property.
