On February 17, 1864, the Confederacy passed its final conscription act of the US Civil War. The new act expanded the ages of potential draftees.
The Confederacy had to pass conscription laws to fully man their armies. The first conscription act covered all males between the ages of 18 to 35. Later this was extended to 17 to 50. Thus we can see that the ages of Confederate soldiers fell in between these ages.
With many volunteers due to end their service to the Confederate army, Major General James Longstreet was summoned to Richmond to provide his input on the contemplated conscription act and new policies related to volunteer enlistments. The 1862 Confederate Conscription Act would be the first time in America that draft laws would be enacted. In 1863, the Union also passed a conscription act.

the Conscription Act of 1862 was a military draft issued during the Civil War
The Conscription Act of the Confederacy inspired great anger and opposition. It required every white male of age eighteen or older to enlist in the Confederate Army. Anger grew when it was learned the sons of prosperous plantation slave owners were exempted, while the poor, who didn't even own slaves, were the ones who were being required to go to war.
