The Old Welbourne Farm and Dulany Family Cemetery is a historic farmstead in Loudoun County, Virginia, near the village of Upperville. The main farmhouse, a brick three-story building, was built c. 1878 in the Queen Anne style, and remodeled in 1910, giving it more Colonial Revival stying. The 620- acre property includes the site of a c. 1812 Welbourne family stone homestead, and the 1837 Dulany family cemetery, which was established when John Peyton Dulany lived in the old Welbourne homestead. Dulany was responsible for the construction of Welbourne, and died one of the county's wealthiest men. Colonel Richard Dulany, founder of the Piedmont Fox Hounds (1840), which is the oldest fox hunting group in the United States, and the Upperville Colt & Horse Show (1853), was born in the 1812 cabin on the property and is buried in the Dulany family cemetery on the property. The "Old Welbourne" house described here probably was built by Richard Dulany, Jr.The United States Department of the Interior placed the property on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014. Old Welbourne is owned by a private family and is not open to the public.
