This series consists of approximately 4,200 record cards (3" x 5") that were probably used by Auburn's principal keeper to record locations of incarcerated individual's work assignments. Assignments included work locations within Auburn Prison as well as in the various prison work camps. The cards relate to individuals discharged during the years 1920, 1927-1932. Each card includes name and consecutive number, length of sentence, location of each work assignment, date each work assignment began, date discharged, and method of discharge (parole, transfer, commutation, etc.).
