Situated southeast of Lake Erie and north
of the hardwoods in the Allegheny National
Forest, the city of Jamestown has a popula-
tion of a little more than 30,000 people mak-
ing it the largest community of New York’s
Chautauqua County. In addition to being
recognized as a former home to celebrities
like Comedian Lucille Ball as well as (the
less humorous) NFL Commissioner Roger
Goodell, Jamestown has also been celebrated
for furniture making and being the pioneer-
ing source of innovations like the crescent
wrench. It is also the former home to one of
America’s earliest nursing schools, an initia-
tive conceived by principals of a late 19th
Century boarding home (with one room
hospital) founded by the Woman’s Christian
Association of New York. W.C.A. graduated
