Groveton is an extinct unincorporated Civil War era village in Prince William County, Virginia.[1] The village is located at the intersection of U.S. Highway 29 (Lee Highway) and Groveton Road on land that is now part of Manassas National Battlefield Park, a National Park Service property. The only remnant of the village is the L. Dogan House, a small, white frame structure, and the nearby Groveton Confederate Cemetery that contains the remains of over 260 Confederate soldiers.[2]
