Adams County Record Contacts

This is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Contact the office that holds the record or custody information directly.


Official Adams County Contacts

Use the office that matches the record question. The Sheriff’s Office has no separately published records line, so county Right-to-Know is the documented written-record route.

Choose the Right Record Route

Official channels cover different custody states and types of information.

  • For a local booking, recent intake, or release window, start with the ACACC and Sheriff portal route.
  • For an existing county record or photo that is not online, use the county Right-to-Know form and make the request specific.
  • For a case result, use the Pennsylvania UJS docket or Adams County court records.
  • For a person sentenced to state custody or under state supervision, use the PA DOC locator.
  • For federal custody, use the BOP locator; for qualifying immigration custody, use the ICE locator.
  • For a public-safety tip or a possible warrant, use the official Sheriff and Most Wanted routes. Call 911 in an emergency.

Adams County Control, 717-334-8101, is the documented non-emergency dispatch route used by municipal agencies. It is not a records office.
