Robert A. Jackson, Class of 1852

Jackson was a farmer in Mecklenburg County, VA when he enlisted on January 20, 1862 as 2nd lieutenant of Co. D of the 2nd Regiment VA Artillery, which later became the 22nd Battalion VA Infantry. He was killed on June 28, 1862 in an unspecified location, but his company was involved in the Seven Days' Battles near Richmond during this time and it is nearly certain he died in this engagement.
