Where to Look for Wayne County Records
For current Wayne County Jail custody or booking questions, start with the sheriff's office and jail contact information posted by official local sources.
- Wayne County Sheriff's Office / Wayne County Jail: 207 N Lafayette St, Corydon, IA 50060. Phone: 641-872-1566. Email posted by the sheriff site: ddavis@wayneso.org. The sheriff site posts public hours of 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday.
- Wayne County Clerk of Court: 100 N Lafayette St, Corydon, IA 50060, second floor. Phone: 641-632-2040. Posted hours are 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m., closed 12-1.
- Wayne County Attorney: Alan Wilson, phone 641-872-2054, for prosecutor-office contact after a charge has been filed.
Use the record type to decide which lookup path fits:
- For someone held in the county jail, use jail inmate records and the Wayne County Sheriff's Office roster.
- For booking photos that appear with current jail entries, use jail roster mugshots.
- For filed charges, hearings, and docket activity after an arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and Iowa Courts Online.
- For facility address and jail-service context, use the Wayne County Jail page.
- For a sentenced state prisoner or community-corrections case, search the Iowa Department of Corrections Offender Search.
- For a federal sentenced prisoner, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator. For immigration custody, use the ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
- For custody-status notifications connected to a jail roster entry, use VINELink links provided from the Wayne County inmate profile when available.
