This series consists of daily census reports of incarcerated individuals taken at Sing Sing Prison from August 18, 1927, to May 18, 1928. The census was likely maintained by Sing Sing's deputy warden. For each day, the following information was recorded: number of incarcerated individuals received and discharged; number of incarcerated individuals at each location within the prison when the census was taken (e.g. kitchen, hospital, etc.); and a total count of the entire prison population.
