Best Answer

After the US Civil War ended, Robert E. Lee signed a special oath of allegiance to regain his citizenship. Secretary of State Seward, however, gives the document to a friend as a souvenir and his oath is never recorded. Lee does not become an official US citizen until 1975. Then by a special act of congress, Lee's citizenship is retroactively given.
