Answer:

It is actually Stand Watie.

Step-by-step explanation:

1865: Civil War general Stand Watie, Cherokee, surrenders last. The Cherokee chief Stand Watie is the last Confederate general to surrender in the Civil War. Watie's raids behind Union lines had distracted and delayed Union troops when they were badly needed at battles.
