Lucille Ball Birthplace - Jamestown

Lucille Ball's birthplace is on Stewart Avenue in Jamestown, New York.  The famed actress was born here on August 6, 1911, to Henry Ball and Desiree Hunt.  Her father was a lineman for the Bell Telephone Company, and because of his position was required to move several times during the early years of her life.  When her father contracted Typhoid Fever and died in 1915, the family moved in with her mother's parents in nearby Celoron, New York.
