Hello

 

My great grandfather, James Theordore Robbins was sent to prison in 1896.
In the book, "Oregon State Penitentiary" records of inmates Prepared by
Oregon Genealogical Society, Eugene Oregon, indicates he was charged with
rape from Union County on 6/12/1896; convicted and sentenced to 35 years.  I
can't find any information concerning what happened to him.  He left four
children to be raised by his wife's parent.  She died in 1887.  The
following information is all I have found.

 

Oregon Historical Records

Case# 3681 

Name Robbins, James 

Date 6/12/1896 

Record Type Inmate 

County Union 

Source Penitentiary

 

I would like to know if he died in Penitentiary or if he was released and on
what date.  Any information would much appreciated.

 

Respectfully

Babe Fain
