The history of Jamesport
History of Jamesport...The first white man to buy government land in this vicinity was Jesse Harris in 1830. The log cabin he built to house his family in 1836 now stands in the Jamesport City Park. His neighbors were the Sauk and Fox Indians. The Jamesport area was located on prairie land located between the East and West Grand Rivers. The area was dotted with hardwood trees, many one-hundred feet tall and four feet wide. The surrounding areas were covered with prairie grass so tall it would hide a horseback rider.
