It is an unincorporated town in Chesterfield County, Virginia, U.S. Founded over 300 years ago as a coal town, it is now a suburban community located west of Richmond, Virginia, and south of the James River in the Greater Richmond Region. It was named for the early 18th-century coal mining enterprises of the Wooldridge brothers. They called their new venture the Mid-Lothian Mining and Manufacturing Company, and forced enslaved people to do the deadly work of digging underground. Midlothian is the site of the first commercially mined coal in the Colony of Virginia and in what became the United States. By the early 18th century, several mines were being developed by French Huguenots and others. The mine owners began to export the commodity from the region in the 1730s. Midlothian-area coal heated the U.S. White House for President Thomas Jefferson.
