Texas Prison Inmate Search

Do you need to find someone in Texas prison? If a family member or loved one has been sent to prison, you might be wondering how to find them. Probably you want to write to them and stay in touch while they do their time.

Texas Prison Inmate Search

I used to be able to display a form on this page that let folks search for inmates within TDC but the folks at TDCJ have changed the way things work and I cannot make it work now. I hope to have a solution soon. Meanwhile please continue to send your questions to me and I will keep trying to help y’all. Sorry for the hassle.

You can also check these other pages I have with information about Texas prison, Federal prison, and, soon to come, county jails in Texas.

  6. I am looking to find what unit Gil Alberto Valdez is in. He was just sentenced on 05/30/2012. This was in Galveston county, I am not sure if that makes a difference. Also, how do I find out his TDCJ number?
    Thank you for the help

    1. Hi Brandy, it looks like he isn’t in the system yet. That isn’t surprising, it can take 2-3 days and you are just now hitting that. Are you familiar with JPay? It’s a way to send money to your inmate. I have found that many times http://www.JPay.com will show an inmates location and TDC number quicker than the TDC Inmate Locator, when they are moved. This is just hsi sentencing though so it still might take a couple days. Just stay calm and keep checking, he WILL show up. Right now there are 4-5 people already with that name but none that were just sentenced on the 30th. Look at the details and you will be able to figure out which one he is when it gets in the system. Good luck to you and Gil. ~TM

  7. Release Felix Cibrian- Allred unit. He has served for his wrongdoings and trust that he has learned from it. give him a chance. thank you

  8. Trying to find out if they moved him yet still says hes in gurney can you let me know or is there a place closer to dallas then huntsville checked but they dont have him is it because of his sentence or not its my nephew joseph m meisenbach

    1. Hello Joseph, Yes, the Inmate Finder still shows him in Gurney. In my experience it is usually pretty up to date, so he is probably still there. It can take awhile for him to get to his home unit. There are units all over Texas, some close to Dallas, but they don’t put the inmates in places close to their families, so it’s just a matter of luck if he ends up close or far from you. Good luck to you and your nephew. ~TM
