This quiet cemetery is on a commanding rise at the northeast end of the village of Waterford in Loudoun County Virginia. The graveyard takes its name not from the Civil War but rather from its use by a union of Waterford churches. Since the early 1800s the Waterford Union of Churches Cemetery has served all Waterford denominations albeit segregated into two sections black 208 graves and white 369 graves other than the Quakers whose burying ground adjoins Fairfax Meetinghouse. Both Union and Confederate veterans lie here.
