You might want to make a trip to the Oregon State Archives and check their
records. You will want to look at the records that OGS looked at to get
their information.

Have you tried writing to the Penitentiary to inquire about any records
they may have? You might be surprised!

Subject: [or-roots] Oregon Penitentiary Record in Salems/Euegene
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
