Family History Month: Behind the Bars

Family History Month: Behind the Bars

Join Aaron Pope, Genealogy Center coordinator, for a fascinating dive into the Oklahoma Historical Society’s database of Oklahoma Penitentiary Photograph and Fingerprint Card records. Register online.

Prison records hold more than just names — they tell stories of resilience, redemption and lost chapters of family history. Discover how these records can reveal surprising details about your ancestors, from personal descriptions and criminal histories to letters, mugshots and more.

Whether your family tree has known outlaws or hidden secrets, this presentation will help you unlock the past in unexpected ways.

Registration is required. For adults and teens.
