lemons

Andrew Jackson did not have a middle name for some unknown reason.

Stonewall Jackson was the most able commander of Confederate infantry of the war. He was one of those men who seem to naturally understand war, he was an aggressive general and he was unshakable in battle. In the Shanendoah campaign, his rag-tag army ran circles and defeated around three armies sent to stop him, each bigger than his own. He and his men were superb on the attack and were hard marchers. Jackson drove his men HARD, often 20+ miles a day, eventually his men earned the nickname "foot cavalry". He play the pivotal role in some of the Lee's most pivotal campaigns where it really is hard to see any other general being able to do the samething.

Confederate Stonewall Jackson was one of the most successful generals in the US Civil War. He was killed by friendly fire at Chancellorsville. One of his famous quotes on warfare and overall battle tactics was the following: His goal was " mystify, mislead and surprise the enemy"This he did so many times.

Stonewall Jackson never made it through the war. His arm was shot by some of his own men when he was scouting at night and they had to amputate it. As a result of the surgery he developed pneumonia and died some days later. His final words were "Let us cross over the river and rest under the shade of the trees."

- Actually Stone Wall Did Make It Through The War, Though He Did Die. But Just Becuase He Died His Legend Still Lives On. B/C He Was A Great General And He Defeated May Battles And The War.

The brigade he commanded before being promoted to corps command was called the Stonewall Brigade, and his infantry later would be called Jackson's Foot Cavalry for their rapid marching.

At the Battle of First Manassas, General Bernard Bee, in order to rally his men, proclaimed, "Look! There's Jackson standing like a stonewall! Rally behind the Virginians!". Bee was later killed but the name stuck with Jackson to this day.

Stonewall Jackson was born on January 21, 1824

Stonewall Jackson was one of the most famous Confederate generals and one of the best officers who fought under General Robert E. Lee, during the American Civil War. At the first Battle of Bull Run, or Manassas, Jackson's brigade faced overwhelming odds, but formed a strong line and held its ground. General Barnard E. Bee, trying to rally his Southern troops, saw Jackson's line an shouted, "There is Jackson standing like a stone wall. Let us determine to die here, and we will conquer." After that, Jackson was known as "Stonewall," and his brigade as the Stonewall Brigade.

Jackson's chief characteristics were his religious nature, his careful attention to military detail, his firm discipline, and his capacity to get the maximum efforts from his men. His soldiers loved him, and they trusted his ability.

General Lee and Jackson understood each other perfectly. The two men worked so well together that General Lee could not find a man capable of replacing Jackson after his death.

Stonewall Jackson died eight days after he was shot during the Battle of Chancellorsville, on May 10, 1863.His death was one of the reasons that General Robert E. Lee reorganized his army after the Battles of Chancellorsville.

That would be Thomas Jonathan Jackson, also known as "Stonewall Jackson"

When Stonewall dying due to infection due to losing his left hand at the Battle of Chancellorsville. Lee Sent a message saying "Give General Jackson my affectionate regards, and say to him: he has lost his left arm but I my right"

Very much so, he was also fond of peaches and believed that pepper in his food made his left leg ache.

Not known, except that it was one of his own side, the Confederates - whether accidentally or deliberately.

The number of different versions of the story does suggest that something is being hidden or camouflaged.

When he died, a mysterious note was found pinned to his body, claiming that he had been assassinated. Some people think he wrote the note himself.

He was accidently shot by one of his own men on May 2, 1863. He survived, but the injury was severe enough to require the amputation of his arm. Jackson eventually died of pneumonia eight days later.

Lieutenant General Richard S. Ewell.

Belle Boyd- who survived the War, and Rose Greenough ( not sure how this is pronounced)- who died in an attempted amphibious landing, are two of the best known.

He was instrumental in the Confederate victories at First and Second Manassas, the Valley Campaign, Fredricksburg, Chancellorsville, and the Seven Days battles.

The capture of Harper's Ferry with its arsenal was something the Confederates began while still moving north, about five days before the battle. There were 12,000 Yankees in Harper's Ferry and Lee did not want to go past them and leave them behind him, in case they came out and attacked him army while it was going north. It took several days for Jackson's men to get on the three heights overlooking the town and emplace cannon there - one across the Potomac on the Maryland side, and one on either side of the Shenandoah. Once there they had to bombard the Yankees some to convince them to surrender, which they only did after the Rebels began an attack. Meanwhile a copy of Lee's orders had been found by the Yankees, who moved with unusual haste for them, to bring on a battle. Lee was not expecting to fight quite that soon. Jackson left only one division at Harper's Ferry, to finish paroling prisoners and start captured was munitions south. That division marched very rapidly tot he battle and arrived just in the nick of time to save the Confederates from disaster, as the day of the battle was ending.

General Stonewall Jackson was a dedicated Christian. he encouraged prayer, revivals, church ceremonies and fasting among his men during the war. he believed that if they did this they would stay closer to God and he would help them win the War.
