Answer:

Edmund Kirby Smith

Confederates lost the civil war. Not long after that, The Northern Union forced the Southern military's leaders to be terminated from their position. General Edmund Kirby Smith was terminated tin May 17, 1865. This made him the last southern confederate General who held his position.
