In 1608, residents of Jamestown engaged in various leisure activities to pass the time, despite the hardships they faced. They organized games such as card playing and dice, and participated in hunting and fishing. The settlers also enjoyed storytelling and music, often gathering around the fire to share tales or sing songs, which helped build community spirit amidst their challenging circumstances. Social gatherings, when possible, provided a much-needed respite from their daily struggles.

No one. Jamestown was founded in 1607 and was reorganized by John Smith in 1608. Well, less reorganized than increased the discipline of the colonists so that they'd actually work to keep themselves from failing.

The first single white woman came to Jamestown in 1608, 90 more came in 1619. Fun fact: During the Starving Time in Jamestown (1609-1610) Henry Collins was reported to have killed his pregnant wife "salted her" and ate her. So that makes one less woman in Jamestown.
