This home is located on the historic Jack's Shop Battlefield.
Many troops travelled the Blue Ridge Turnpike throughout the Civil War, so the house saw a lot of action. According to local lore, some wounded soldiers were treated in the upstairs bedroom.
It also served as the post office in the early 1900's.
The owner of the property next door, lived in this house as a child. There is a door (probably in one of the outbuildings at this point) that had a rectangular hole near the bottom of the door for people to drop off mail to be posted.
On September 22, 1863, J.E.B. Stuart left his headquarters at the Brampton estate in Orange County. As he moved toward Madison, he encountered two Union divisions under the commands of General John Burford and General Judson Kilpatrick that nearly surrounded him. This battle saw Stuart’s Horse Artillery used effectively and a strategic plan by Stuart to withdraw southwards towards Liberty Mills, a ford on the Rapidan guarded by more Confederate forces. ".
"First known as Jack’s Shop for a blacksmith shop that
stood nearby, Rochelle was the scene of a cavalry
skirmish on 22 September 1863. While Confederate
cavalry under Major General J. E. B. Stuart engaged
Union Brigadier General John Buford’s troops, the
cavalry of Brigadier General H. Judson Kilpatrick rode to
Buford’s support and attacked the rear of Stuart’s force.
Stuart’s horse artillery and his cavalry fired and charged
in both directions. They broke through Kilpatrick’s lines
and escaped."
