Fort Lee, New Jersey is a town in Middlesex County, New Jersey, United States. The population was 30,545 at the 2010 census. It is part of the Philadelphia–Camden–Wilmington, PA-NJ Metropolitan Statistical Area. Fort Lee took its name from General Robert E. Lee and his army who fought in the American Civil War there. The first Europeans to visit what is now Fort Lee were Spanish in 1524 and Dutch in 1614 when they explored the area as far north as Cape May Point on Long Island Sound. The Dutch built a trading post at present-day Elizabethtown (now Elizabeth) Township in 1634 for themselves and sold land to English settlers who named it "Lee" for General Robert E. Lee's Confederate Army during the American Civil War because of its strategic position between Union forces on the southern tip of Manhattan and Confederate forces based in Trenton on the Delaware River estuary. The British captured Fort Lee from the Americans in 1865 during their war with America over control of North Carolina's borders following Reconstruction following the end of slavery there.
