It was General George Meade that defeated Robert E. Lee at the battle of Gettysburg.
As for Robert "Stonewall" Jackson... It's Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson. Him and Robert E. Lee would have never gone up against each other since they were both Confederate. Jackson was also killed two months before the battle Gettysburg. He was shot by one of his men and died eight days later due to pneumonia.
