Located in Central Virginia, Trevilians is within driving distance of both Charlottesville and Richmond, the state capital. Back in 1864, General Grant was ordered to cut the railroad between Gordonsville and Louisa as this would disrupt the flow of Confederate supplies to Richmond. Union forces in Trevilians were dispatched to put this plan into action. The Confederate army sent General Hampton to put a halt to the attack and a bloody battle ensued. The Confederate forces prevailed and the Union army was forced back. Today Trevilians is a much calmer place where you can worship at Grace Freewill Baptist Church and visit Randys Produce Farm Incorporated. There is much to see and do here so be sure to check it all out.
