When Andrew Johnson pardoned Confederates at the end of the Civil War on May 29, 1865, some had to apply for amnesty because they were not granted amnesty in the proclamation issued. To learn more about Amnesty and reasons for exclusion, see [http://www.footnote.com/page/1566_amnesty_papers_18651867/ "Amnesty Papers," 1865-1867].<br>
