Battle of Trevilians

Here, on June 12, 1864, Sheridan's cavalry, coming from Trevilians, attacked Wade Hampton, who had taken position across the road. A bloody engagement followed. Fitz Lee joined Hampton, and the Union cavalry was driven back. That night Sheridan retired eastward.

Marker is at the intersection of Louisa Road (U.S. 33) and Trevilians Square, on the right when traveling east on Louisa Road.
