Confederate Memorial Day (also called Confederate Heroes Day in Texas) is a holiday observed in several Southern states since the end of the American Civil War to remember the estimated 258,000 Confederate soldiers and sailors who died fighting against the Union. The holiday is observed widely, but unofficially, in most Southern states. It is observed in late April in many states to recall the surrender of the last major Confederate field army at Bennett Place on April 26, 1865.
