General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson - Charleston, WV - U.S. Civil War General Statues on Waymarking.com

Stonewall Jackson was probably the second most famous General of the Confederate States of America behind Robert E. Lee. Confederate pickets accidentally shot him at the Battle of Chancellorsville on May 2, 1863, which the general survived, albeit with the loss of an arm to amputation. However, he died of complications of pneumonia eight days later. His death was a severe setback for the Confederacy, affecting not only its military prospects, but also the morale of its army and of the general public.
