This has been the subject of many false claims. The last reunion of Civil War veterans was in 1951 when there were only three left.
Albert Woolson was the last veteran of the civil war. And no he was not the last African American he was indeed white. He died in 1847. Decades after the civil war.I hope this helped :)
It's hard to say with any degree of certainty. However, the last definitively proven Civil War veteran was Albert Woolson, who died in 1956.
The last verified veteran of the American Civil War, Frank Woodruff Buckles, died on February 27, 2011. He was 110 years old at the time of his death. Buckles served in the U.S. Army during World War I and was recognized for being the last living Civil War veteran until his passing.
There isn't a positive answer because soldiers ages ranged from 11 and up. So, the youngest solder was most likely an 11 year old boy. It's quite sad.

You can't say he was the last to die of the civil war. A person who dies in the civil war has to be actually involved in the war, as in fighting. By your logic there can be no defined last casualty because who is to say that there will not be a future incident where someone is fatally shot by an old bullet or an antique pistol. So no the last death in the civil war was at the last glorious battle somewhere in Texas. An old man who unfortunately had an accident with an old relic is not a war death. And also, what if a man gets killed because a bridge from the War of 1812 falls on him? This does not qualify him for the casualty list. But it would be funny to see him on the roster of deaths on wikipedia.
I found an article which stated that the last civil war "victim" was Pvt. Patrick Conley from New Jersey. I found the article when I googled my name . . . which is the same. Patrick conley
i was the peole that die in the civil war my name is Eli flynn
loads and loads died in the American civil war
The last known Union Civil War veteran, Frank L. Williams, died on February 24, 1956. He was 109 years old at the time of his death. Williams served in the Union Army during the Civil War, and his passing marked the end of an era for those who fought in that conflict. His death was significant as it represented the conclusion of a direct living connection to the Civil War.

Martyrs of the Spanish Civil War died in 1934.
