During the First Serbian Uprising, Begaljica was part of the Grocka nahija which was headed by "oborknez" Stevan Andrejić Palalija, murdered in the Slaughter of the Dukes (1804). Oborknez Palalija was buried in Rajinovac. The village is mentioned in collected Serbian epic poetry about the Serb Uprising against the janissaries (see The Revolt of the Serbs Against the Turks 1804–1913, p. 48). The Serbian Revolution led to unrest in all of Serbia due to Ottoman retaliation, including Grocka region which halted its development, and only after the Second Serbian Uprising (1815) and stability of the political situation in Serbia, Grocka region started to intensively develop. In "haraç" (tax) texts, Begaljica had 51 houses in 1818, and 52 houses in 1822. Joakim Vujić crossed by the village in 1827, and registered the three villages (parishes) of Rajinovac: Begaljica, Kamendol and Umčari as having 89 houses and 1212 people.
