Westmoreland County Overview

As originally established by the Virginia colony’s House of Burgesses, it was separated out of Northumberland County in 1653, and the territory of Westmoreland County encompassed much of what later became the various counties and cities of Northern Virginia, including the city of Alexandria, Arlington County, Fairfax County, and Prince William County. These were part of Westmoreland until 1664, when Stafford County was formed. Westmoreland County was the birthplace of George Washington, the first President of the United States (at the former settlement of Bridges Creek, Virginia), of James Monroe, the fifth President; and of General Robert E. Lee, commander of the Confederate armies. Westmoreland County is the Northern Neck region of Virginia. AS of the 2010 census, the population was 17,454. The county seat is Montross and Colonial Beach is the largest community. The county has a total area of 229 square miles of land, plus 24 square miles of water. Neighboring counties include two in Maryland: Charles to the north, and St. Mary’s to the northeast. Remaining bordering counties are all in Virginia: Northumberland to the southeast, Richmond to the south, Essex to the southwest, King George to the northwest. The county is home to the nationally protected George Washington Birthplace National Monument and to a portion of the Rappahannock River Valley National Wildlife Refuge, both nationally protected areas. The most populous zip code is 22443, and it is one of eight used by the county.
