Find Inmates & Addresses

Hamilton County residents who are in local, state, or federal custody can be located using the information below. Use the “Find Inmate” button below to learn where they are incarcerated — and the corresponding “Find Facility” button to lookup the correct address and related information.   

If you are writing or visiting someone in custody, make sure you’re familiar with the facility’s policies.  No matter your good intentions, violating these policies will almost certainly result in your letter being returned or your visit being denied.  

Note: If you are a Stephen’s Table volunteer, you don’t have to keep track of the location of the person you are writing. Just email the content of your letter to and we’ll take care of the rest.
