The Village of Aldie was first envisioned in 1765 when George and James Mercer built the Aldie Mill. In 1809 the Little River Turnpike was completed and when Charles Mercer, James Mercer’s son, in partnership with William Cook began developing Aldie on 30 acres of land. The name Aldie was bestowed on the town in honor of the Scottish ancestral home of the Mercers. As the surrounding infrastructure continued to grow, so did the Village of Aldie, which had its own Post Office by 1811. According to the 1820 Census, Aldie had 248 residents by then.
The Battle of Aldie was staged in the village and the surrounding areas during the Gettysburg Campaign, which was where Confederate army battalion commander John Singleton Mosby lived. Aldie is home to a number of historical buildings, including the Post Office, The Aldie Mill, The Toll House, The Old Aldie Rectory and more. There are also quite a few historical markers that commemorate various Civil War battles and skirmishes that were fought in the area.
