really?
I apologize for the incorrect response. The correct answer is: It occurred after the Confederacy officially surrendered.
The Battle of Palmito Ranch was the final battle of the American Civil War, which took place on May 12-13, 1865, in Texas. It occurred just over a month after General Robert E. Lee's surrender at Appomattox Court House and around a week after Confederate General Joseph E. Johnston's surrender in North Carolina. Despite being a relatively minor engagement, the Battle of Palmito Ranch is significant because it was fought after the Confederate surrender, making it the last battle of the Civil War.
