More about Aldie, VA
Aldie is a small historic community located in Loudon County in the northern part of Virgina. Aldie is situated between the communities of Chantilly and Middleburg. The community is considered a bedroom community, or suburb, of the greater Washington DC metropolitan area. The suburb is located on the edge of U.S. Route 50, the John Mosby Highway, and is nestled between the Catocin Mountains and the Bull Run Mountains. The small community serves as a gateway of sorts to vineyard goes or history buffs who are on their way to visit the Loudon Valley. In 2014, the population of the community was 11,420 residents, a population increase of over 500% from the 2000 census. This population increase makes it one of the fastest growing Washington DC suburbs and the 2nd fastest growing zip code in the state. Despite these rapid changes and growth, the community is still unincorporated.
History
The community of Aldie has a rich history that began in the mid 18th century. George Mercer and his brother James Mercer established a mill in 1765. The placement of the mill was based on the intersection of two main roads running to Winchester, Alexandria, and the Snickers Gap. It was not long before the roads were further developed and the Little River Turnpike was complete running from Alexandria to the Mercer Mill. The opening of this new turnpike inspired the son of James Mercer to develop a small village. Charles Fenton Mercer developed 30 acres of land at the western end of the turnpike and named it Castle Aldie. The name of the village paid homage to the Scottish birthplace of the Mercer family. In 1811 the first post office was opened in the village. The next few years saw the completion of the Ashby’s Gap Turnpike and the Snickersville Turnpike, replacing the older preexisting roads. By 1820, the population had increased to 248 residents. At the time it was the fourth largest town in the county. At the time, more than half of the residents of Aldie were slaves. After the early 1830s the population began to decline as nearby Middleburg grew.
The village of Aldie had a role in the American Civil War. The village and nearby land to the northwest were the site of the Battle of Aldie. John Singleton Mosby, a Confederate Cavalry battalion commander, also known as the Grey Ghost, was very active in the village of Aldie. He was known for his ability to elude Union troops, and many of the run-ins between his men and the Union cavalry took place in and around the village.
Today
Today much of the history of the Village of Aldie has been preserved. While the unincorporated community continues to grow to the east, with the development of upscale homes, the Historic Village of Aldie remains well preserved. The old hill and Aldie Mill Historic District, Furr Farm, and Mount Zion Old School Baptist Church have all been named to the National Register of Historic Places.
