This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Those actions and records must come from the responsible public office.


Choose the Correct Fulton Office

For a county-jail custody or booking-record question, contact the Fulton County Sheriff at 309-547-2277 or fax 309-547-2355. Written FOIA requests may be emailed to foia@fultonco.org or mailed to the FOIA Officer, P.O. Box 269, Lewistown, Illinois. The Fulton County Jail is at 268 W. Washington Ave., Lewistown, IL 61542. No separate jail-records hours were documented, so confirm availability before visiting.

The Circuit Clerk is in Room 207 at 100 N. Main Street, P.O. Box 152, Lewistown, IL 61542. Clerk contacts are 309-547-3041 extensions 206 and 210, weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Fulton County Probation is in Room 204 at the courthouse, 309-547-3041 extension 220, on the same weekday schedule. IDOC's Public Information Office is at 1301 Concordia Court, P.O. Box 19277, Springfield, IL 62794-9277, telephone 217-558-2200. The research did not state IDOC office hours.

Use the route that matches the record or custody system:

  • For a released person or release record, the home page provides the full official search and request path.
  • For supervision after release, use Fulton County Probation for a known probation case or IDOC and PRB for state parole or MSR.
  • For a recent jail departure, request the Sheriff chronology because Fulton County has no official 24-hour feed.
  • For a date or alert, use IDOC's exact date fields or Illinois VINE according to the last custodian.
  • For a facility matter, choose the Fulton County Jail, Illinois River Correctional Center, or Mary Davis page listed below.
  • For a sentenced state prisoner, use the Illinois Department of Corrections offender search or records office.
  • For federal or immigration custody, use BOP or ICE; USMS may require a focused inquiry or records request.
