Well I believe the place of death is correct. "O'Reilly is convinced Jackson was suffering from a pre-existing respiratory infection that went untreated prior to the battle. Had it not been for that, Jackson most likely would not have died seven days after being shot three times by friendly fire."

He was shot accidentally by a Confederate gaurd - and although he did not die immediately, sickness soon ended his life. The South lost perhaps their greatest military mind, which perhaps caused them to ultimately lose the war...
