If you'd at least give some sort of context I might be able to go look it up myself, but it looks like nobody could be fucked... :lol:
There is only one Jonestown that I've ever heard of, or indeed of any public note. It's in Guyana (or was), and was set up by Jim Jones as a retreat for his bizarre socialist/communist cult in the 1970's. I'm not sure why you needed "context" to copy-paste "Jonestown" into Google, but since this arcane skill evidently escapes you:

wikipedia page, confirming it was in Guyana

Jonestown Memorial Website, dedicated to preserving the memory of the massacre (and with more information than anyone could possibly want about the place)

And a documentary about Jonestown.

Very funny, huh Ryan?

I'll just go cry in a corner now because I evidently fail at geography, if you'll excuse me...
