John Chapman's Civil War Nightmare at Historic Chapman/Beverley Mill
Chapman/Beverley Mill...... 11am - 4pm
On Sunday, June 13, visitors to Chapman/Beverley Mill are invited to take a guided tour
through historic Chapman/Beverley Mill and learn about the Civil War history of the mill
and the family who operated it in that era. Hear the fascinating history of Chapman’s Mill
during the Civil War from a “living historian” interpreting Ellen Chapman, the widow of
John Chapman. Learn the impact of the war on this important 19th century industrial
center and the man who operated it. Additional reenactments will take place.
Visitors will learn about the known and newly learned history of the Chapman/Beverley Mill
and Thoroughfare Gap, just three miles west of the village of Haymarket. Discover why the
Battle of Thoroughfare Gap was a pivotal battle that determined the South would win the
Second Battle of Manassas. If the Northerners had held the Gap, the Civil War would have
been over in weeks. Come learn the fate of John Chapman and how his nephew,
Frank Williams, an officer in Mosby’s Rangers who captured Union General Stoughton
from his bed in Fairfax, may have led to Chapman’s ill treatment by the Northerners.
Ellen PercyMiller, Executive Director of Turn The Mill Around Campaign (TTMAC) will talk
about the last Chapman to own the mill, which in 1860 was the largest industry in Prince
William County, one of the most industrialized counties in Virginia. John Chapman was
ruined economically, physically and emotionally by the Civil war and died at the Staunton
Asylum for Lunatics in 1866. Donations appreciated.

of four chukkers each, with a mix of professional and amateur players including Tim
Gannon, co-founder of Outback Steakhouse. The benefit match will pit the Outback-
Booz Allen Hamilton Team against the Black Watch-Van Metre Team. In addition to
the polo match, activities will be available for children. During half-time, a memorial
dove release will occur for attendees to honor a loved one.
General Admission Tickets for the benefit match are $10 each, available through

The translation to this new spin on the well known oenological phrase is:
"in wine is spiritual truth". Now in its third season, In Vino Veritas Spiritus is a somewhat

On Sunday mornings at 11AM throughout the growing season, itinerant vineyard preachers
Kim J. Ciftci (formerly of McLean Bible Church) delivers a scriptual message at one of
several local wineries, the sermons from the vineyards. The message all draw their truth
from the many biblical references to wine, grapes, the vineyard, or the processes involved
in winemaking. For information or comment on In Vino Veritas Spiritus, you can contact
Kim directly at: kciftci@hotmail.com
