Actually, he died from pneumonia a week after being accidentally (link)


shot by his own troops during the Battle of Chancellorsville. He was riding back after dark from reconnoitering the territory for another assault.

His left arm was hit twice, shattering it, and it had to be amputated the next day. It has it's own grave in Orange County.
