FBI Section 77 • C-11 • Administrative Functions

Section C-11 — which comprises the first half of Section 77 and which is labelled in the Guyana Index as “Administrative Functions” –– consists of 199 pages.

The listing below is complete for this section of the FBI’s FOIA release. The complete PDF for this section as released by the FBI is here.

The citation for these documents should open with the FBI’s official designation of these records, which is “RYMUR 89-4286.” Each individual page in these records has a unique number. Page 50 of this document, for example, is marked “C-11-b1”. The complete citation for that page, then, would be “RYMUR 89-4286-C-11-b-1”.

The documents in this section were transcribed by Alexandra Prince, a professor of Religious Studies at Skidmore College, and the late Don Beck. The editors are grateful for their invaluable work.

The documents retain their original spelling, with corrections only for clarity and for names.

Jonestown held a number of community meetings known as “Peoples Rallies” throughout its history. Many of the minutes from those meetings appear in this section, and have been gathered and arranged in chronological order here on the Primary Sources page. A chart listing the rally dates as compiled from the Journals of Edith Roller appears here.
