Idaho State Historical Society Public Archives and Research Library • Idaho Penitentiary Inmates 1864-1947

Introduction to the index

In 2001, Bonnie Fuller, Dovie Darchuk, Suzanne Shemwell, Linda VanZant, Barbara Wright, and Carolann Zagrafos— all members of the Boise Dead Relative Collectors—

volunteered over 500 hours to create the first electronic, alphabetical index to more than 13,000 inmate records from the Idaho Penitentiary. In 2003, volunteer Julie Yandell expanded public access even further by using census records, and prison reports and registers to compile a list of territorial prison inmates.

In 2007, the Idaho State Historical Society’s Public Archives and Research Library leveraged this generous contribution to preserve the most fragile inmate files and photographs (those originating between 1864 and 1947) and to enhance public access even further. This project was funded by a grant from the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (an arm of the National Archives and Records Administration), and work began in September 2007.

Origins

The following index is a sampling of inmate files from the main collection, complied by our volunteers and staff, with expanded and enhanced content. This index aims to

provide access by register number, name, alias, crime, county or jurisdiction, age, year of birth, and year of incarnation.

The scope of the main index aims to cover all inmates of the territorial and state penitentiaries between 1864 and 1947, including those for whom individual case files may not survive and who can only be identified by cross-referencing other archives holdings. Inmates who are identified in this way are indicated in the index as “collection references,” with the citations included in the “notes” field. Inmates for whom the archives holds individuals records are assigned individual file reference numbers, as follows:
