Hi Sharon, Please tell us the official name in 1941. Is this Manhattan? Other counties in NYC are named something similar. Please view this about "The Tombs." Boss Tweed, formerly crooked Tammany Hall leader was imprisoned here> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tombs Ancestry also led me to a trial of my great grandfather in 1903 Manhattan AKA NY County, that caused him to lose rights. In 1912, NYS Gov Dix restored his rights and fined him $25. without imprisonment. This is to say that I'm seeking repositories of these records. -----Original Message----- From: Sharon Suckow via [email protected]; I am tracing my family tree and just discovered a great uncle, who was convicted and sentenced to the Federal House of Detention in 1941. Would his prison information and records be available to me? NAME: Emanuel Bondell AKA: Manny Davis/Rothnstein DOB: 01/05/1900 Thank you, Sharon Suckow [email protected]

Hi, Thank you for the information on the Tombs it was very interesting. I had another "Black Sheep" who ended up in the State Penitentiary in Washington state. I wrote to them and they sent me his records and his booking photo. I am a member of Ancestry but haven't had any luck so far. The newspaper article only said he was sentenced to the Federal House of Detention, no other name. I know the Brooklyn House of Detention had not been built The crime and trial both were in NYC and both of the men lived in NYC too.
