Nebraska Prisoner Records Database

Nebraska’s First State Prison (RG2418)

This is an index compiled from Nebraska Board of Pardons and Parole (RG0034) registers. It includes prisoners from the state penitentiary, the men’s reformatory, and the women’s reformatory.

Researchers should be aware that this database is INCOMPLETE, as it contains information on ONLY THOSE inmates who appeared before the Board of Pardons and Paroles. If you would like our reference staff to check for an inmate in the complete Descriptive Record of Inmates, Department of Correctional Services (RG0086) files, contact Library/Archives for procedures and cost for initiating a search.

To use this database, the researcher may input a Name, County, Crime, Prisoner Number, and/or Alias Name and will be given a listing of all the matching name index entries.

The following information is given for most entries:

• • Name

• • When Born

• • Prisoner Number

• • County

• • Crime

• • Sentence

• • Photo (marked with an ‘X’ if there is photo on file)

• • Alias Name

• • Remarks

• • Reel Number
