This website is a private reference resource, not a Lamar County government office. It cannot verify whether someone is in custody, release an inmate, post bond, schedule a visit, or pull an official booking record. Use the agency contacts below for official answers.
Where to Ask About Custody or Records
Lamar County uses different offices for jail custody, sheriff administration, and court records. The jail and sheriff are also separate from ADOC, BOP, ICE, and VINELink systems.
Lamar County Jail
1118 County Road 9
Vernon, AL 35592
205-695-7103
Call for current jail custody and booking questions. No official online Lamar County roster or mugshot gallery was located.
Lamar County Sheriff's Office
330 1st Street NE
Vernon, AL 35592
205-695-7470
Sheriff Marty Gottwald is the current sheriff identified in the research. Use this office for sheriff routing and records questions.
Lamar County Circuit Clerk
330 1st Street NE
Vernon, AL 35592
205-695-7193
Contact the clerk for court filings, criminal case records, warrants, docket questions, and copy requests.
County building hours found in the research are Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 4:30 pm. Do not assume those are jail visitation, booking-desk, or records-counter hours; call the specific office before travel. Online starting points include Lamar County government, the Circuit Clerk, and the court system's magistrates and warrants page.
- For someone possibly held at the county jail, start with jail inmate records and the jail phone line.
- For booking photos, use jail roster mugshots; Lamar County did not have an official online mugshot gallery in the reviewed sources.
- For charges filed after arrest, use court records after a jail arrest and the Circuit Clerk.
- For a facility page, use the Lamar County Jail page or the facility link in the footer.
- For a sentenced Alabama prisoner, use the ADOC Inmate Search.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the BOP Inmate Locator or ICE ODLS. For custody notifications, check VINELink.
