Neck of Land

near "James Citty"

This area, like a peninsula and bounded on three sides by a marsh, is just across Back River from Jamestown Island. In 1625 there were a number of houses and 25 people living here. The settlement had close community ties to “James Citty” and sent representatives to the General Assembly there.

Marker can be reached from Colonial National Historic Parkway 1.8 miles east of Jamestown Road (Virginia Route 31).
