For all practical purpose, the general in charge of all US military affairs, Ulysses S. Grant accepted the surrender of Robert E. Lee, the general in charge of the Army of Northern Virginia. The surrender took place at the Appomattox Court House in Virginia on April 9, 1865. It was an unconditional surrender. It took almost a month before all Southern forces learned of the surrender. Lee refused to back ideas by some Southerners to wage a guerrilla war. So none were attempted.
