  • Demory Wortman House
    History The Blue Ridge Center is located in an area known as Between the Hills, nestled between the Blue Ridge and Short Hill Mountain. This area has witnessed over 10,000 years of human occupation. Human interactions with the land have included Native American occupation of temporary camps and hunting sites, colonial settlers clearing land for small agrarian communities, Confederate and Union troops using the area as a strategic corridor during the Civil War, and the expansion of new technology and farming methods during the Industrial Revolution. In the early 19th century, prior to the Civil War, the Blue Ridge Center lands were heavily settled. The most visible reminders of the once thriving settlement along Piney Run are the buildings. In all, 33 sites have been identified. There are many stories to tell and even more to discover. The Blue Ridge Center uses all possible resources, from historic texts and documents, oral histories, to archaeological methods, to discover each story, how it relates to each of us and the land we tread each day. Find out more about the history of the land and the structures you will find as you explore our land: • Land use • Demory Wortman House • Barn • Spring House • Wortman Pond • Barney's Cabin • Derry House • Old Bridge • Boundary Marker Tree • Everheart Homeplace • Log House • Stone Wall Land use In the 18th century, English settlers, many of them tobacco farmers, arrived in Virginia's Piedmont region, having migrated north from the Tidewater region. In Loudoun county, there was a slightly later influx of Germans, Dutch, Scots, Irish, and Pennsylvania Quakers, most of whom did not own slaves.

The CLI is an evaluated inventory of all landscapes having historical significance that are listed on or eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places, or are otherwise managed as cultural resources through a public planning process and in which the NPS has or plans to acquire any legal interest. The CLI identifies and documents each landscape’s location, size, physical development, condition, landscape characteristics, character-defining features, as well as other valuable information useful to park management. Cultural landscapes become approved CLIs when concurrence with the findings is obtained from the park superintendent and all required data fields are entered into a national database.

Kate Powell Carter provided entertainments for The Brothers’ War: Mosby and the Unionists the Rangers—food, music, and dancing—and went out of her way to provide forage from both Bellfield and Oatlands for the Rangers’ Tour 5, The Brothers War—Mosby and the Unionists—This is many horses. She was often joined by Elizabeth Carter, mistress of our newest tour, one for another day, beginning in Mosby’s Oatlands, her mother-in law. This family would provide Mosby Confederacy at Atoka. It will take you deep into adjacent with his beloved horse Coquette when he failed to partake in the Unionist country in the northern part of Loudoun County. You spoils from the Greenback Raid. The road leading to Bellfield and will see preserved villages like Lovettsville, Taylorstown, the entry lane are stereotypically evocative of the stone-walled Waterford, and Lincoln. Here, German-Virginians and landscape Mosby and his Rangers knew. Quakers tried to keep their heads down and endure the War, Directions: From Atoka (Rector’s Crossroads), turn left onto but many harbored Union sympathies. They seldom held truck Route 50, the John Mosby Highway, and continue about two miles with slavery. Mosby saw northern Loudoun as a ready source to Route 623, Willisville Road on the right. Travel 1.6 miles on of forage for his command. Some in northern Loudoun were Route 623 to its merger with Route 743, Millville Road.

  • Articles by Joe Keating 2004
    Articles by Joe Keating 2004 Waterford has suffered a lose December 29 Wilhelmina 'Billie' Hetzel was buried last week next to her husband Fred in the cemetery of the New Jerusalem Church in Lovettsville. From that vantage point you can look east onto the roof peaks of Waterford against backdrop of the Catoctin ridge. Billie was a Waterfordian who never lived here but whose ancestors were Govers who lived in our house and many others throughout the village. She belonged to the Waterford Citizen's Association, The Waterford Foundation and as a member of the Goose Creek Meeting in Lincoln could be counted as one of the few descendants of the Fairfax Meeting, part of the reason d'etre of Waterford. No activity in Waterford went without her interest and support. At times of the all to frequent community crises, usually confronted before the Board of Supervisors, she was usually there with the rest of the concerned villagers these thirty years past. One of her unrealized quests was to buy a house in Waterford. This was a part of her desire to return to her roots that began when she purchased what was known as the " family farm" southwest of Purcellville. She had another quest that dominated her life. That was to convince everyone she met in the correctness of her many idealistic beliefs. These included Quakerism, the Democratic Party, historic preservation, and organic foods. She also believed in the importance of astrological signs, telepathy, extra terrestrials and UFO's. These were just the tip of the iceberg of her beliefs.

  • Loyalty, Military Occupation, and Irregular Warfare in a Northern Virginia Border County, 1861-1865
    Their Homes were in the Enemy’s Lines: Loyalty, Military Occupation, and Irregular Warfare in a Northern Virginia Border County, 1861-1865 by Scott Thompson, B.A. A Thesis In History Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Texas Tech University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Approved Dr. Barton Myers Chair of Committee Dr. Gretchen Adams Dr. Barbara Hahn Dominick Casadonte Interim Dean of the Graduate School August, 2013 Copyright 2013, Scott Thompson Texas Tech University, Scott Thompson, August 2013 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am indebted to many who have helped me complete this project. Though I have used tremendous amounts of intellectual energy and spent countless hours researching and writing, completing this thesis would not have been possible without those who have assisted me along the way. I thank the Texas Tech University Department of History for providing me with much-needed funding for my research trip to Virginia and Washington, D.C., in the summer of 2012. I extend my gratitude to Loudoun County archivists/historians John M. and Bronwen C. Souders for letting me borrow and make copies of their private collection of diaries. I appreciate the help of the archivists at the Thomas Balch Library in Leesburg, Virginia, the National Archives in Washington, D.C, and the Museum of the Confederacy in the former Confederate capitol of Richmond. Their essential help enabled me to adequately capture the voices of my subjects. I could not have asked for a better graduate advisor/committee chair to help guide me through the beginning, course, and completion of this thesis.
