Re: Prison Records


Good morning from Brooklyn New York,

Family lore has it that prior to WWI my grandfather did a short
stint in prison.

He was working for the Post Office and got caught stealing stamps.

Would anyoine have any idea where I might be able to locate these
records?

Assuming that your grandfather also lived in Brooklyn,and since this
was a crime against the federal government, his records should be
in NARA at the Northeast Region, New York City office at Varick
Street; email newyork.archives@xxxxxxxx, 1-866-840-1752 or
212-401-1620. Brooklyn is in the Eastern District of New York

I also found a free on-line site:
