Stonewall Jackson

Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson was an artillery officer in the United States Army during the Mexican War earning a brevet (temporary) rank of Major. At the outbreak of the Civil War Jackson joined the Confederate Army at the rank of Colonel and eventually reached the rank of Lieutenant General.

His actions and those of his men in the Stonewall Brigade (Virginia 2nd, 4th, 5th, 27th and 33rd Infantry Regiments) at Harper's Ferry earned General Jackson his nickname.

The confederates

North Carolina was not a hotbed for secession. But after Fort Sumter North Carolina joined four other Southern states in the Confederacy, they included Virginia, Tennessee, Arkansas, and finally, the very late entrance into the rebellion of North Carolina in May 20, 1861. The people of this state were virtually dragged into the Southern cause.

he lost the civil war

He was killed by one of his own men in the confusion of battle.

Of course I can answer this question. i think that he did because his marriage was a tragedy. These questions always lead into other questions like who conducted the battle of bull run, and things like that and eventually what was the largest snake in the world's most recent and biggest meal. if stonewall Jackson didn't get married he couldn't have children which leads into another question- did stonewall Jackson have kids? i think the Christians at that time believed in not having kids before you're married. Now they don't really do that, but they used to. and Mr. stonewall Jackson was a christian or are people just guessing t5hat? you should now be smart enough to look at a different answer if you haven already. peace. :)

He was strong and stood straight.

Stonewall jackson was a tall man. He was about 6'3.

The north wear blue and the south wear gray

He was accidently shot by his own men. He was on his frontline and when he decided to retire to the rear , as he was riding to his picket lines he was mistaken for a Union officer and was shot. he died of pnuneiomia a few days after.

He had never tasted butter until he was a young man. When he tried it for the first time he liked it so much he was afriad that his desire for it would hinder his relationship with God. It would be come an idol.

Battle stars are earned by the military personnel that enter a designated war zone for during certain periods of time.

Chancellorsville

Stonewall Jackson, a Confederate general during the American Civil War, had a deep love for his faith, particularly his Christian beliefs, which guided his actions and decisions. He was also passionate about military strategy and the art of war, demonstrating a keen intellect in battlefield tactics. Additionally, he cherished his family and personal relationships, particularly with his wife, Anna. Jackson's devotion to these aspects of his life shaped his character and legacy.

Jackson's first wife was Elinor "Ellie" Junkin, whose father was the President of Washington College (today Washington and Lee University) in Lexington, Virginia. They married in 1853 while Jackson was teaching at the other college in Lexington, the Virginia Military Institute. On October 22, 1854 Ellie gave birth to a stillborn son, and one hour later hemorrhaged and died. In 1857 Jackson married again, to the daughter of a prominent Presbyterian clergyman of Charlotte, North Carolina, Mary Anna Morrison (Jackson was an extremely devout member of the Presbyterian Church). Mary Anna's sister Isabella was married to Daniel Harvey Hill, who also became a Confederate three star Lieutenant General. Jackson's wife came and spent the winter of 1863-63 with her husband while the army was in winter quarters, and Jackson had his headquarters in a small shed on the grounds of an estate called Moss Neck, the shed having been the "man cave" of the estate's owner, who was himself in the army. Jackson and his second wife had a daughter, Mary Graham, in April 1858, who died at less than a month. They had another daughter born in 1862, named Julia Laura, named for her father's mother and sister, who was six months old when her father died, after being accidentally shot by his own men 150 years ago today. Julia lived to grow up, and was widely thought of as the daughter of the Confederacy in the south. Julia married William Edmund Christian and had two children, but died of typhoid at age 27, in 1889. Mary Anna Jackson outlived her husband by fifty-two years, and died in 1915 at age 83. She wore mourning clothes the rest of her life, never remarried, and published two books about her husband. In 1907 the state of North Carolina tried to offer her a pension, and though she greatly needed the money, she let it be known that she preferred the money go to needy Confederate veterans.

Stonewall Jackson did not surrender; he was a Confederate general known for his military prowess during the American Civil War. He was mortally wounded at the Battle of Chancellorsville in May 1863 and died shortly thereafter. However, the surrender of Confederate forces in the Civil War is often associated with General Robert E. Lee, who surrendered at Appomattox Court House in April 1865.

His name is Thomas Jonathan Jackson.
