2019 Map of Jamestown

About this map

The Chadakoin River flows through the industrial and residential heart of Jamestown, serving as a central geographic anchor for this southern Chautauqua County landscape. The 2019 data reveals a transition from the dense urban grid of the city and its neighbor Falconer to the broader agricultural and riverine valleys of the south. Along the Conewango Creek and Stillwater Creek, the map details a network of smaller communities such as Stillwater, Frewsburg, and Kiantone. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including the large Lake View Cemetery and the more outlying Thayer Cemetery. The southern reaches toward the state line near Fentonville are defined by the convergence of several waterways, including Kiantone Creek and Frews Run, illustrating the drainage patterns that have historically shaped settlement and road placement in this region.
