Jamestown, Administrative division in North Carolina, United States.
The settlement occupies a strategic location with waterways on three sides, providing natural barriers and deep-water access for vessels at the shoreline.
The Virginia Company established this settlement in 1607 with 104 English settlers, marking the first permanent English colony in North America.
The first representative legislative assembly in English North America gathered at the Jamestown church on July 30, 1619.
