The county is named for Thomas Nelson, Jr., a signer of the U.S. Declaration of Independence, who served as Governor of Virginia in 1781. An earlier Virginia county, also named in his honor, became part of Kentucky when it separated from Virginia in 1792.

This community will offer a charming atmosphere, and abundant history, and friendly people.

Dinwiddie County is a county located in the Commonwealth of Virginia. As of 2010, the population was 28,001. Its county seat is Dinwiddie.

The first inhabitants of the area were Paleo Indians, prior to 8000 BC. They are believed to have been nomadic hunter-gatherers following animal migrations. Early stone tools have been discovered in various fields within the county. At the time of European contact, Native Americans had territory in the region.

Dinwiddie County was formed May 1, 1752 from Prince George County. The county is named for Robert Dinwiddie, Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, 1751–58. The county raised several militia units that would fight in the American Revolution.

Dinwiddie County was the birthplace of Elizabeth (Burwell) Hobbs Keckly, a free black dressmaker who worked for two presidents’ wives: Mrs. Jefferson Davis and later Mary Todd Lincoln. Thomas Day was also a native; he was well known later at Milton, North Carolina, as a free black cabinetmaker.

During the Civil War the Battle of Lewis’s Farm was fought along Quaker Road [Rt. 660]. It took place on March 29, 1865. This was the first in several attempts by the Union General Ulysses S. Grant to cut Robert E. Lee’s final supply line—the South Side Railroad—in the spring 1865. Here the Union forces led by Brig. Gen. Joshua L. Chamberlain engaged Confederates under Maj. Gen. Bushrod R. Johnson. After sharp fighting, the Union troops entrenched nearby along the Boydton Plank Road and Johnson withdrew to his lines at White Oak Road. The Union army cut the rail line four days later, after capturing Five Forks on April 1, 1865, at the Battle of Five Forks. Several other engagements were fought in Dinwiddie County, including the Battle of Dinwiddie Court House, Battle of Sutherland’s Station, and Battle of White Oak Road.

Journey back into the 19th Century at Pamplin Historical Park and The National Museum of the Civil War Soldier! Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, as a Virginia Historic Landmark, and as a National Historic Landmark, Pamplin Historical Park is recognized as one of America’s premier historical attractions and as the most innovative Civil War history park in the country.

Check out Chesdin Lake a 3,100 acre water supply located on the Diwiddie-Chesterfield border. Chesdin is a very productive lake that offers excellent large-mouth bass fishing, good crappie fishing (both black and white) in spring and fall, and a great channel catfish fishery.

Drive a short distance a visit Dogwood Trace Golf Course is Petersburg’s recently renovated par-72 championship course. There are 4 sets of tees ranging from 4,874 yards to 6,707 yards.

Google-PROPERTY MAP

Description: This stunning 2.29 Acre property is located on Portobago Trail in the Portobago Bay Estates Subdivision. The property is just outside Fredericksburg in Caroline County Virginia. The parcel is beautifully wooded and level with road frontage. Portobago Creek runs along the backside of the property and the adjoining bay is within walking distance. The subdivision is a waterfront, upscale neighborhood with large estate style homes.  With the property only 30 minutes from Fredericksburg you will love having easy city access, all while enjoying the beauty and peacefulness of living near the water.

Caroline County was established in the British Colony of Virginia in 1728 from Essex, King and Queen, and King William counties. It was named for Caroline of Ansbach, the wife of King George II of Great Britain.

During the Colonial Period, Caroline County was the birthplace of Thoroughbred horse racing in North America. Arabian horses were imported from England to provide the basis for American breeding stock.

At the southern edge of the county, The Meadow, a farm originally established in 1810, became a premier facility for breeding, raising and training Thoroughbred race horses. In 1972, Riva Ridge, raised at The Meadow, won the Kentucky Derby and the Belmont Stakes, two of the three events of the Triple Crown. The following year, Secretariat, born at The Meadow, won the famous Triple Crown for the Chenery family’s Meadow Stable.

The county is also home to a quarry that has proved a rich source of pre-historic whale and shark skeletons. The whole county is located in what was in ancient times an ocean. It is known to palaentologists as the middle Miocene Calvert Formation of Virginia. A whale skeleton discovered there in 1990 was proved to be a new whale species (see Eobalaenoptera harrisoni).

Mattaponi Springs Golf Club is a world class golf design sculpted from 330 acres of wildly undulating countryside in historic Caroline County Virginia. After five years of meticulous planning and detailed development, Mattaponi has quickly become recognized as the premier golf destination in central Virginia. Mattaponi is conveniently located just a few miles from I-95 along the Richmond to Washington corridor.

Long, narrow and nearly level, the 934 acre Pettigrew Wildlife Management Area in Caroline County offers a broad range of opportunities. Hunting, hiking and it’s diversity of upland and wetland habitats appeal to an array of outdoor interests. There are two designated parking areas. Trails near the center of the area and along the eastern perimeter provide access to the area by foot. Hunting includes deer, dove, turkey and squirrel which are the most abundant game species. Quail, woodcock and ducks are present in small numbers. Ware Creek offers limited fishing opportunity for herring during spawning runs in the nearby Rappahannock river, and for largemouth bass and crappie.

In Nearby Doswell, Kings Dominion is Virginia’s only combined water and ride park where guests can ride or slide in the same location. Coaster lovers will enjoy the East Coast’s largest collection of roller coasters with 15 coasters, including Intimidator 305, voted one of the best new coaster in 2010.
