At the Virginia Convention held May 1775, the Colony of Virginia was divided into 16 districts and each district was instructed to raise and discipline a battalion of men to march at a minute’s notice. Culpeper, Fauquier, and Orange forming one district raised a cadre of 350 men organized and trained by July 17, 1775. On Oct. 20, 1775, the battalion was reported within a few hours’ march to Williamsburg by Purdie’s Va. Gazette, and on Oct. 23, 1775, the Captains of the Culpeper Minute Battalion were definitely in Williamsburg starting to draw equipment 249 years ago.

Fleetwood Paracon: The Resurrection
2024-10-26 11:00 | Historic Fleetwood Church, 19526 Brandy Rd, Brandy Station, VA, 22714, United States
Tickets on sale now! Join your host, Spirit Guides Paranormal as they rally once more to raise funds for the continued renovation of the historic Fleetwood Church in Brandy Station, Virginia! Spirit Guides Paranormal is excited they are able to do this again, and they want YOU to join them!!Established in 1880, the Fleetwood Church is a hauntingly beautiful building that stands upon historic grounds; one of the history’s greatest cavalry engagements took place just paces away. Less than 20 years earlier, on June 9, 1863, these grounds saw over 20,000 troops – including 17,000 cavalry – engaged in battle. It was this battle that ended the Confederate cavalry’s dominance in the East, and established the Federal cavalry as a strong and confident force. Another 20+ battles and skirmishes occurred right in this general area, making it the most fought over area in American history. With over 1,400 casualties and losses on these grounds, has every soldier truly gone home?Some beg to differ – most notably the numerous paranormal teams who have investigated the Fleetwood Church. Could this activity stem from the fact that the Union army had to move on, leaving the dead to be poorly buried – or worse, not at all? Reportedly, five months after the battle, the Union returned to the land to find no bodies – only gnawed on bones scattered all throughout the battlefield and surrounding areas. Fleetwood Church is now privately owned and maintained by Steve Pollett & Historic Fleetwood Church, LLC. Steve has been tirelessly working to restore the building to its original state. Through your support, we can help make this happen. This is a Fundraising Event! Proceeds of this event will go to Fleetwood Church for its continued restoration efforts!—————————————————-General admission includes access to Vendor spaces, Speaker Lectures & Q&As, and access to explore the Fleetwood Church. Tickets are available separately for a meet and greet with Spirit Guides Paranormal and special guest speakers followed by a paranormal investigation of the Historic Fleetwood Church and grounds from 9:00PM to 1:00AM.—————————————————-Looking to join in on the paracon fun, while promoting your team, business, or exhibit?Fleetwood ParaCon: The Resurrection is now accepting Vendors for our 2024 ParaCon at the Historic Fleetwood Church!
