Jackson earned his nickname in the first big battle of the war, the First Battle of Bull Run (or Manassas) in July 1861. From April to June 1862, as an independent commander, he led the southern forces in "The Valley Campaign" in the Shenandoah Valley. This is the only campaign of the war still relevant and studied today by students in military schools. Jackson fought and defeated three separate small Union armies, each of which was larger than his own. He drove the Yankees from the Valley and tied down an additional 60,000 Union troops, held in readiness between the Valley and Washington in case Jackson decided to attack Washington. The battles in the Valley Campaign included Cross Keys, Port Republic and Winchester. These battles made Jackson famous not just all over America but around the world.
Jackson then joined his force with Robert E. Lee near Richmond, Virginia and together they fought "The Seven Days". This involved six separate battles over seven days which drove McClellan away from Richmond. Jackson's men took no part in the first of these, Mechanicsville, for which Jackson was criticized. Three days later Jackson was again slow to involve his corps in the battle.
After McClellan was driven into a camp under the protection of the Union navy's gunboats the Confederates had to contend with another Union army, made up of the reformed fragments Jackson had defeated in the Valley plus the 60,000 who had guarded the approaches to Washington from him, now moving south, under John Pope. Jackson was sent north to met Pope, and fought and won at Cedar Mountain, then moved farther north, capturing a huge Union supply depot at Manassas Junction, which was looted and burned. Then Jackson began the Second Battle of Bull Run, joined for the last half of it by the rest of Lee's Army. After winning this battle the Confederates headed north into Maryland. On the way Jackson, with about half Lee's army, captured Harper's Ferry with about 12,000 Union troops taken prisoner. The Confederates then fought the Battle of Antietam (Sharpsburg), and then withdrew to Virginia.
In December 1862 the Confederates, with Jackson, repulsed a Yankee attack at Fredericksburg, with severe loss to the Union.
After remaining in winter quarters after Fredericksburg, the 1863 campaigning season opened with the Battle of Chancellorsville in early May. It was in this battle that Jackson was mortally wounded by his own men, and died a week later.
Lt. General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson was in at least seven major battles in the US Civil War. He was killed during the battle of Chancellorsville by friendly fire on May 4, 1863.
Somewhere close to 3 and 6
3 I think. which battles?
NONE
Stonewal Jackson, killed at Chancellorsville - after which neither Lee nor his army was quite the same again. Another answer could be cavalry leader Jeb Stewart who was Lee's eyes and ears at many battles, but helped him to lose Gettysburg, and was killed at Spotsylvania.
stonewall got shot 16 times in the arm and legs and 3 in the stomach

Stonewall Jackson at Chancellorsville. It was reported as accidental, but there are many conspiracy theories. A mysterious note was found pinned to his body, claiming that he had been assassinated - possibly written by Stonewall himself.

Stonewall Jackson was an American. He was born in western Virginia, a place that later became part of West Virginia. Many scholars like to speculate as to how the Civil War would have been different if Jackson hadn't died early in the conflict.
