Welcome to the new home of the (JeffCoWiki) Homepage!
We have been online and offline intermittently since Wikispaces shut down, trying various pieces of software to no avail in an effort to get this wiki back up again.

But now we think that we have found a new home here at Miraheze.org.

The Jefferson County NY Wiki is intended to be a long-term project that will document - in delicious detail - the history and current state of Jefferson County, New York and all of its environs including Watertown and Fort Drum.

This wiki is generously hosted by Miraheze.org, a non-profit wiki farm.

Find popular subjects and heading pages in the sidebar to the left, or search for subjects in the top-right search field.

The Jefferson County NY Wiki Needs Your Help!!

The Wiki needs folks like you to help contribute. You do not have to be a professional writer or historian. The goal of the Wiki has always been to document everything and anything relating to Jefferson County, NY, no detail too big or too small.

Contact Organizers the organizers if you have any questions, we’re glad to help.

Do not cut and paste info directly from newspapers, magazines, websites, etc unless it is in the public domain or you have permission to use it.
