General Robert E. Lee surrendered the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia to Lieutenant General Ulysses S. Grant at Appomattox Court House Virginia on April 9, 1865. Lee had no authority to surrender any other Confederate army so the war would continue but for the most part it was over.
Grant's terms of surrender stipulated that all arms, ammunition, artillery and public property were to be surrendered. Grant made special provision to the officers under Lee's command whereby they were allowed to keep their personal horses, side arms and personal baggage.
