Admission records for some prisoners have been expunged. Identifying data such as the name of the prisoner, picture, prison number, residence, relatives, place of birth, and date of birth have been concealed. Until 1889, entries are organized chronologically by date of entry into prison. After that time, entries are organized numerically by inmate number, which usually corresponds to the prison entry date. Several series contain information about some of these same prisoners.
Records created before that time are public and available for general research.
Page 188 of Volume A was missed in the original filming and was spliced to the beginning of reel 2 in 1991. Originals are kept by the Inmate Records Office at the Utah State Prison. Current retention is 5 years in the office and in the Record Center for 10 years. At that point the registers are ready to transfer to archives. Government agencies should contact their analyst directly.
