Lost Jamestown - History of Jamestown, TN

Welcome to Lost Jamestown — your window into the rich history of Jamestown, Tennessee and Fentress County!
History is all around us, but it’s slipping away a little more every day. Lost Jamestown exists to preserve what we can and share it freely with anyone who loves this place as much as we do.
A huge thank you to the Fentress County Historical Society and the many generous contributors who made this page possible — we literally couldn’t do it without you!
Have a photo, story, or newspaper clipping to share? We’d love to see it! Drop us a message — even if you need help getting it posted, we’re happy to assist.
Please note that much of our content comes from a wide variety of sources, and some details may be inaccurate — after all, many of these photos are older than most of us!
For commercial inquiries or questions about the Lost Jamestown brand and content, please contact the admin directly.
