Best Answer

There was no official ending, i.e. a peace treaty - because there had been no official declaration of war in the first place. (Congress did not recognise the Confederacy as a sovereign nation.)

You could cite May 10th 1865, as that was the date that the Confederacy was officially wound-up. But there were still Confederate units in combat for a few weeks after that, and some of their Generals never did surrender.

That is why Appomattox (April 9th) is taken as the notional ending of hostilities, when one General-in-Chief surrendered to the other.
