Stonewall
to go against the presidents orders
True; President Abraham Lincoln told the Southern states that the sanctity of the United States was of paramount importance and he would use military force to keep them from succession. This was nothing new however; some 25 years earlier, President Andrew Jackson told the same southern states the same thing.

Thomas Jackson received his nickname, Stonewall, at Bull Run because he stood like a stone wall against the attack, until Beauregard could bring up reinforcements and counterattack.
Confederate general Thomas Jonathan Jackson earned the nickname "Stonewall" due to his staunch defense of Henry Hill while maintaining a calm demeanor at the first Battle of Bull Run.
That was QB Chuck Long of the University of Iowa. Jackson had 1,509 total points and Long had 1,464. Jackson received 317 1st place votes and Long received 286. Robbie Bosco of Brigham Young was a distant third with 459 points.
Southerners who saw an advantage to backing the Reconstruction of the South represented the majority of Southern Republicans. Much like the northerners who were against the Civil War (Copperheads), these southerners earned a derisive nickname. They were called "Scalawags".
Tennessee's nickname is "the Volunteer State", after the men who "volunteered" for military service in US wars against Indians and the British (in the Battle of New Orleans) under General Andrew Jackson, and later on the side of Texas in its Revolution against Mexico.

he led Southern forces against the North, and he held out, never gave up. He was a brave and tough soldier, hence the name "Stonewall" Jackson.
Roosevelt obtained indictments and i can't remember the nickname from it.
