The American Civil War began on April 12, 1861 at 4:30am with the Confederate bombardment of Union held Fort Sumter in Charleston harbor, South Carolina.
The ability of the South to effectively prosecute the war ended when Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia to General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Courthouse, Virginia on April 9, 1865. This date is frequently cited as the traditional end of the War. Confederate General Joseph E. Johnston surrendered to Union General William T. Sherman 17 days later on the twenty-sixth. Several commands were surrendered the following month ending military hostilities.
