James Warren "Jim" Jones (May 13, 1931 – November 18, 1978) was an American cult leader. Jones was the founder and leader of the Peoples Temple, infamous due to the mass murder-suicide in November 1978 of 918 of its members in Jonestown, Guyana, the murder of Congressman Leo Ryan, and the ordering of four additional Temple member deaths in Georgetown, the Guyanese capital. Nearly three-hundred children were murdered at Jonestown, almost all of them by cyanide poisoning. Jones died from a gunshot wound to the head; it is suspected his death was a suicide.
Jones was born in Indiana and started the Temple there in the 1950s. He later moved the Temple to California in the mid-1960s, and gained notoriety with the move of the Temple's headquarters to San Francisco in the early 1970s.
Jones was born in a rural area of Crete, Indiana, to James Thurman Jones (1887–1951), a World War I veteran, and Lynetta Putnam (1902–1977). Lynetta reportedly believed she had given birth to a messiah. He was of Irish and Welsh descent. Jones later claimed partial Cherokee ancestry through his mother, though according to his maternal second cousin Barbara Shaffer, this is likely untrue. Economic difficulties during the Great Depression necessitated that Jones' family move to Lynn, Indiana, in 1934, where he grew up in a shack without plumbing.

The Jonestown Death Tape An audio recording made on November 18, 1978, at the Peoples Temple compound in Jonestown, Guyana immediately preceding and during the mass suicide and murder of over 900 members of the cult. Original Notes: I acquired the source cassette tape from a schoolmate c. 1979 whose father was an FBI agent The sound levels were increased as close as possible to clipping when I mastered to CD-R from cassette and then normalized to -18dB average RMS power (loudness) in Sound Forge An interesting website for further research is the Jonestown Institute which contains transcripts as well as commentary on this and other recordings recovered by the FBI from Jonestown after the mass suicide and murders.
Just to let you all know. These "Healings" were all staged and fake.

On November 18, 1978, Jim Jones orchestrated the Jonestown massacre, the name given to the mass murder carried out by the preacher and leader of a religious community in the heart of the Guyanese jungle. Media outlets worldwide narrated, horrified, what the Guyanese authorities had discovered in the settlement of the long-considered dark cult. The members of the People's Temple, the cult led by Jim Jones, had just committed the largest mass suicide in modern history. 909 people were found dead. The grim outcome for a community that, at the time when journalist Marshall Kilduff published an article exposing the dark truth about the sect based in San Francisco, was forced to embark on an exodus to what Jim Jones referred to as "The Promised Land."
