Jamisontown is a Sydney suburb located about 56 kilometres west of the Sydney CBD. It is situated on the east of the Nepean River, and bears the name of Thomas Jamison, who was the first landowner in the area and First Fleet surgeon.

Prior to White settlement, the area now known as Jamisontown was home to the Mulgoa people who spoke the Darug language. In 1805, the then Surgeon-General (Principal Surgeon), Thomas Jamison was granted 1,000 acres of land here. Years later, the property passed on to his son, Sir John Jamison who was a known physician, land owner and political reformer. John Jamison build a mansion (since destroyed by fire) on the nearby Regentville estate during the 1820s. Mulgoa Road (named in honor of the historical owners of the land) is the main road in the suburb. The nearest railway station is at Penrith on the Western Line of the City rail network. Jamisontown Public School is the only school in the suburb. Jamison High School is actually located in South Penrith.
