Everettsville is an unincorporated community in Albemarle County, Virginia.[1] It was named for Dr. Charles Everett who in 1821 bought the 400-acre tract called Pouncey's of the Shadwell tract from Thomas Jefferson. He more than doubled his property to more than 1,000 acres.[2] The area became known as Everettsville.[3]
In the mid-19th century, it was a point along the stagecoach route between Richmond and Staunton.[4] Nicholas Trist's wife and children briefly took up residence here in early 1829 as they awaited word to follow Trist to Washington.[5]
