Confederate Gen. J.E.B. Stuart's command passed by this spot on the way north June 27, 1863. The soldiers were headed for the nearby Potomac River crossing at Rowser's Ford following a fight at Fairfax Court House. Stuart's march ended badly when he arrived too late to be much help during the battle of Gettysburg.
