He was promoted to 1st Sergeant on 23 Oct. 1862; and subsequently to 3rd Lieutenant on 1 Jan. 1863, after the Battle of Fredericksburg. He served in this same unit with his brother George T Jackson; and half-brother Ashton A. Jackson, who was killed at the Battle of Gaines' Mill on 27 June 1862. Both Lt.
