This Department of Historic Resources historical highway marker is next to the Main Gate of Fort Belvoir on Richmond Highway (U. S. Route 1). It reads: “Fort Belvoir is named for the 18th-century plantation that was owned by William Fairfax. The house burned in 1783. The U. S. War Department acquired much of the Belvoir tract in 1912 as a training center and in 1917 named Camp A. A. Humphreys for Major General Andrew A. Humphreys, a former Chief of Engineers. During World War I the camp was enlarged and the Engineer School moved there. The camp was renamed Fort Humphreys in 1922. In 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt changed the name to Fort Belvoir. The Engineer School moved to Fort Leonard Wood, Mo. in 1988.”
