==History==
===American Revolutionary War===
{{Further|Battle of Red Bank|Fort Mercer}}
[[File:Red Bank Battle Monument, 1906, National Park, NJ.jpg|thumb|The Red Bank Battle Monument, dedicated in 1906]]
In 1777, during the [[American Revolutionary War]], the [[Continental Army]] under command of [[George Washington]] constructed two forts on the [[Delaware River]] to block the approach to [[Philadelphia]]: [[Fort Mifflin]] on the [[Pennsylvania]] side and [[Fort Mercer]] on the [[New Jersey]] side, which is now National Park. The fort was named in honor of [[Brigadier General]] [[Hugh Mercer]], who died earlier that year in the [[Battle of Princeton]]. A park, monument, and museum commemorate Fort Mifflin on its original site.

On October 22, 1777, in the [[Battle of Red Bank]], an attack by 900 [[Hessian (soldiers)|Hessian troops]], serving under [[British Army during the American Revolutionary War|British]] [[Major General]] [[William Howe, 5th Viscount Howe|William Howe]], who then occupied [[Philadelphia]], was repelled, with heavy losses on the Hessian side, including the death of their commander, [[Colonel]] [[Carl von Donop|Carl Emil Kurt von Donop]], by the 600 [[Continental Army]] defenders under Colonel [[Christopher Greene]]. After the loss of [[Fort Mifflin]], Fort Mercer was abandoned without a fight when [[Charles Cornwallis, 1st Marquess Cornwallis|Lord Charles Cornwallis]] landed 2,000 British troops nearby on November 18.<ref>[http://www.nationalparknj.com/about.htm About National Park], Borough of National Park.

===19th century===
In 1895, the area began to be commercially developed as a religious retreat for members of the [[Methodist Episcopal Church]] and called National Park on the Delaware. The founder, the Rev. James E. Lake, also created [[Ocean City, New Jersey]].<ref>Shamlin, Wilford S.
