- La battaglia di Waterford fu una scaramuccia di lieve entità che ebbe luogo a Waterford, in Virginia, durante la guerra civile americana, precisamente il 27 agosto 1862. Lo scontro avvenne tra le unità di cavalleria partigiana dei White's Rebels schierate in loco a combattere per i Confederati, e dei Loudoun Rangers, che combattevano per l'Unione. I White Rebels sorpresero e misero in fuga i Loudoun Rangers, da poco costituitisi, dal loro accampamento a Waterford, catturando quasi l'intera unità prima di metterli in libertà vigilata, riportando così una piccola ma significativa vittoria per i confederati. L'azione fu il primo combattimento nella contea di Loudoun. (it)
