	William Andrew Jackson(b. 1834) enlisted in C Co. 12th Va. Inf. Regt. on 10 Aug. 1862 at Petersburg, Va. He was detailed as Sharpshooter. He served in this same unit with his brother; and my maternal Great Great Grandfather, John Edward Jackson. He was captured at the Battle of Crampton's Gap near South Mountain, Md. on 14 Sept. 1862. This was a minor battle preceding the Battle of Sharpsburg(Antietam) Md. He was later exchanged at Aiken's Landing on 2 Oct. 1862. He was again captured on 5 Apr. 1865 at the Battle of High Bridge, Va. during the retreat of the Army of Northern Virginia. He was imprisoned at Point Lookout,Md. and was released on 14 June 1865. He died of Cramp Colic? on 31 Jan. 1866. This is recorded in the Blandford Church Cemetery; Petersburg, VA. records. I have a book titled 'Civil War Soldiers of Brunswick County, Va.' in which his death date is mistakenly listed as 15 July 1868. The reason for the mistake listed in the last paragraph; is that my G-G Grandfather had an infant son named for his brother William Andrew who died as an infant on 15 July 1868.
