Due to the movement of the capital to Williamsburg, the old town of Jamestown began to slowly disappear from view.
Those who lived in the general area attended services at Jamestown's church until the 1750s, when it was abandoned.
By the mid-18th century, the land was heavily cultivated, primarily by the Travis and Ambler families.

During the American Revolutionary War, although the Battle of Green Spring was fought nearby at the site of former Governor Berkeley's plantation, Jamestown was apparently inconsequential.

In 1831, David Bullock purchased Jamestown from the Travis and Ambler families.
