History edit

On the night of November 5, 1861, a shootout occurred at Oak Hill between members of the units later involved in the Bog Wallow Ambush, in an area of much probing and patrolling between Union and Confederate forces.[4] All three of the Fitzhugh estates were protected by orders from both sides throughout the war.[5]

David and Amanda Scheetz purchased the home in 2008, after a foreclosure, for $1.15 million.[6] The home is open to tours periodically.[7]
