What obscure fact about Jonestown fascinates you? Mine is the Amerindians.

Based on the Road to Jonestown book, I learned that during the original settlement activities, the pioneers had good relationships with the local Indian tribes called the Amerindians , even after the devil Jim Jones arrives in Jonestown in 1977. There was still good relationships with the native population of the area. In fact, they would come in on Sundays and share a meal with the residents. I think they were also given access to the medical facilities. they seemed to especially like the shoes and footwear of the Jonestown residents. There were reports even of theft of shoes so the residents were instructed to be careful and put them in a secure place. Their shoes around the time of the White knights these Sunday visits stopped. However it is stated some native babies were left in jonestown for care.

even after the final pavilion meeting the native population we're already going through the camp taking things of use. Oh what they must have thought of that traumatic scene.
