Why New Jersey is called the
Crossroads of the American Revolution?

New Jersey is called the crossroads of the American Revolution because it held an important
geographic location at the center of the new nation. The armies were in or crossing it throughout the war due to its key position between New York City and Philadelphia.
Throughout the Revolutionary War, there were many clashes between the Americans and British within
New Jersey. In total, there were 296 engagements, more clashes than occurred in any other colony in the Revolutionary War.
Besides being the location of several important battles, New Jersey was also helpful in disrupting British supply units. Forts on the Delaware River could attack British supply troops as they sailed to Philadelphia. Men in whaleboats crossed the Hudson and raided New York City and Long Island, and
captured shipping in the Sandy Hook staging area outside
NY harbor.
Ships based in south Jersey ports raided British shipping at sea. New Jersey also had several ironworks that provided products such as cannons for the war effort. The Ford family in Morristown ran a black powder mill that supplied needed powder for the cause.
The Continental army encamped three years in New Jersey, in the winters of 1777 at Morristown, 1778-79 at Middlebrook (near Bound Brook), and in 1780 again at Morristown. Large parts of the Continental forces wintered in other years in
New Jersey.

Congress created the Continental Army on June 14, 1775, and John Adams nominated George Washington to serve as the army's Commander-in-Chief. While there were over 230 skirmishes and battles fought during the American Revolution, these are the battles where General Washington personally secured his legacy as 'First in War.'

Washington Crossing the Delaware

Hook up website in bound brook nj tax collector

American artist Harrington G. Fitzgerald (1847-1930) painted this version of General George Washington’s famous 1776 crossing of the Delaware River about 100 years after the Revolutionary War. Instead of showing the actual crossing of the Delaware, Fitzgerald shows the Continental Army soldiers on the New Jersey side of the river as they regroup and prepare to march on Trenton. Fitzgerald spent much of his life working for a family-owned newspaper, but he found relief from the stresses of his professional life in painting. He studied painting under several notable American artists, including Thomas Eakins and John Singer Sargent. Fitzgerald is best known for his works depicting the landscape of Valley Forge.
