HistoryThe hamlet was named for James DeWitt.[1] The Dr. John Ives House, Saint Mark's Church, and Southwood Two-Teacher School are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[2] 2007 plant proposalOn January 16, 2007, a New York City company, Empire Synfuel LLC, submitted an application for site plan approval for a proposed coal gasification plant in Jamesville where the now abandoned Alpha Portland Cement factory once operated. The plant, projected to cost $1.3 billion and create up to 150 jobs, would have converted coal into synthetic natural gas. The proposal faced opposition from area residents and town board members who were concerned about such issues as the extremely close proximity of the village's elementary school.[3] In addition, environmentalists opposed the plant because its releases of carbon dioxide would contribute to global warming.[4] The project was proposed at another site 40 miles north, in the Town of Scriba.[5] According to the Sierra Club, the proposal was defeated.[6] Jamesville ReservoirThe Jamesville Reservoir is south of the hamlet. Jamesville Beach Park, a county park, includes a small beach on the reservoir, several hiking trails and fields. The fields are the site of the annual Jamesville BalloonFest, where dozens of hot-air balloons take to the air in one weekend. Both the reservoir and park are in the town of LaFayette, New York.{{citation needed|date=September 2017}} Further reading{{unreferenced section|date=September 2017}}The history of the community is documented in the book Water, Wheels and Stone: Heritage of the Little Village by the Creek, Jamesville, New York, written by Jean Schutz Keough, and published in 1976 and 1978 by the Jamesville Historical Book Committee.
