DeJarnette's Tavern
DeJarnette's Tavern, also sometimes called ''DeJarnette House'', ''Daniel DeJarnette Tavern'', or ''Staunton River Hunt Club'', is a nationally registered historic place near Nathalie, Halifax County, Virginia. This wooden structure with stone foundations and chimneys was built in the late eighteenth century, perhaps about 1780, and consists of one and one-half stories, with a supra-attic and cellar. Most of the first floor was occupied by a large tavern room.〔National Register of Historic Places registration form for DeJarnette's Tavern. http://www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/Counties/Halifax/041-0067_DeJarnettesTavern_2007_NRfinal.pdf〕
==History==
The tavern served as a stagecoach station, and perhaps as a mustering location for Revolutionary War soldiers. It is named after Daniel DeJarnette, who was the son of Revolutionary War captain, James Pemberton DeJarnette.〔National Register of Historic Places registration form for DeJarnette's Tavern. ''op. cit.''〕 Several accounts indicate that Daniel DeJarnette may have won the tavern in a contest of strength or wrestling.〔Cathey, Lucy.
