The Union was preserved. You can find countless turning points in the Civil War, where the outcome of one battle or incident could've provided a different impact on America. One such incident, was the death of TJ. Without him, RE Lee lost the initiative at Gettysburg that may have cost him the battle. Many historians believe that had TJ been alive, the high ground behind Gettysburg would've been captured on the first day of battle, possibly leading to the Rebs holding back the Union army as they did at Fredrickburg.

I am not sure of what you are looking to find out. If this is not what you want, write me and I’ll try again. At the actual time of his death even, the Yankees were saddened and the South devastated and has never recovered. Lee once said, “if I had Jackson I would have won Gettysburg”. Therefore, while his death buoyed the morale of the yankees it dampen ours. If he had lived, we might have won the war or at least gotten them to sue for peace!
God Bless you and Jack along with the Southern People.

The US was unaffected by Jackson's death. That inept, idiotic, abortive goat-rope called the Confederacy was doomed from the moment the first cannon was fired at Ft. Sumter.
Erwin Rommel, George Patton, Alexander the Great and Julius Ceasar combined couldn't have saved it.

there were cities and countys and small towns all over the south named in honor of him. jacksonville, florida, jackson, mississippi, and jackson county, florida, are a few examples.
contrary to popular belief, jackson square in new orleans, louisiana, is not named after stonewall jackson, it is named after andrew jackson.
thats about all i know about it.
