Scope and Content Note

These volumes list male inmates committed from each county except for New York, Kings, and Richmond counties, from which no commitments were made.

The registers provide: date admitted; name; and occasionally a notation ("recom") if recommitted (Volume 1 only). Volume 2 also contains a typescript county list of inmates paroled from the New York State Training School at Warwick whose supervision was transferred to the State Agriccultural and Industrial School in 1939 but who were not entered in the registers because they were never actually in the institution. The total number of inmates admitted from each county was published in the institution's annual reports.
