Stephen D. Lee

Stephen Dill Lee (September 22, 1833 – May 28, 1908) was an American soldier, and the youngest Confederate lieutenant general of the American Civil War (but no relation to Robert E. Lee).
A regular officer in the U.S. Army, Lee resigned soon after secession, to join the South Carolina Militia, and delivered the historic demand to the Union to evacuate Fort Sumter, effectively starting the war. After serving in the Seven Days Battles, Second Bull Run and Antietam, he became John C. Pemberton’s chief of artillery in the Vicksburg Campaign, where he distinguished himself at Champion Hill. Captured and exchanged, Lee served at Atlanta and in the abortive Franklin-Nashville Campaign, finally surrendering with Joseph E. Johnston in North Carolina in April 1865. Later he was commander-in-chief of the United Confederate Veterans.
==Early life and career==
Lee was born in 1833 in Charleston, South Carolina, to Thomas Lee and his wife Caroline Allison.〔Wakelyn, 282.〕 He was raised in Abbeville, South Carolina. He possibly volunteered for service with the United States Army during the Mexican–American War.〔Eicher, p. 345.〕 Lee entered the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1850, graduating four years later and standing 17th out of 46 cadets. On July 1, 1854, he was commissioned a second lieutenant in the 4th Infantry Regiment. Lee was promoted to the rank of first lieutenant on October 31, 1856. He served as the 4th Regiment's Quartermaster from Sept. 18, 1857, to February 8, 1861.〔
Lee was serving as adjutant of Florida as well as his regiment's quartermaster in 1857 during the Seminole Wars. From 1858 to 1861 he was assigned to the western frontier, posted in Kansas and then in the newly created Dakota Territory.〔 Lee then resigned his U.S. Army commission twelve days later to enter the Confederate service.〔Warner, 183.〕
