Schuyler is a small town located in northern Virginia in Nelson County. This community is located just south of Charlottesville in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The famous author Earl Hamner hails from this tiny area and it is the inspiration for his book "The Homecoming" which later became the 70s television hit "The Waltons."
