No record of the earliest colonial settlement at Falls Church has been found, but a cottage torn down between 1908 and 1914, two blocks from the city center, had a stone dated 1699 set in one of its chimneys. The town takes its name from the Falls Church, whose vestrymen included George Washington and George Mason, and in the summer of 1776 a copy of the Declaration of Independence was read to residents from its steps.
In the Civil War, Falls Church voted 44 to 26 for secession. Confederate troops occupied the village and Munson's and Upton's hills to the east, probably for their views of Washington, until they withdrew to Centreville on September 28, 1861. Union troops then took the hills, but the village was never fully under Union control, and in 1864 and 1865 Mosby's Raiders rode into the heart of Falls Church to kidnap and kill suspected Union sympathizers. The city owns the Cherry Hill farmhouse of 1845 and its barn of 1856, which are open on summer Saturdays. Tinner Hill and the Tinner Hill Heritage Foundation mark a center of early African American history in the area, including the site of the first rural chapter of the NAACP. Two of the original 1791 boundary stones of the District of Columbia stand in parks on the line between Falls Church and Arlington, among them the west cornerstone in Andrew Ellicott Park.
