This is a private reference resource, not a government office. It cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, arrange a release, post bond, or retrieve an official booking record. Those matters must go to the public office that holds the record.
Hampshire County Record Contacts
For a Hampshire agency arrest record or a request that needs routing to the sheriff’s records custodian, use the verified HCSO contact information. The official site does not identify separate public records-unit hours, so no hours are listed here. Ask for the non-exempt public portion of the specific record and include the person’s name, approximate date, agency, and any known case or booking number.

PHRJCF is the present regional custody destination for a qualifying Hampshire jail admission. It is located at 355 Dolan Drive, Augusta, WV 26704, and its published facility line is (304) 496-1275. That number is not automatically the DCR records-request line. Use DCR’s current policy route for a PHRJ admission photograph or offender record request.
- For current regional-jail custody or daily admissions, begin with the DCR offender-search landing page.
- For a Hampshire arrest report, booking record, or request routing, use the HCSO official contact page.
- For an active warrant question, use HCSO’s published warrants contact or the court, not a name search alone.
- For a later charge, dismissal, plea, or other case result, use West Virginia court access and the Hampshire Circuit Clerk where appropriate.
- For a sentenced state-prisoner search, use DCR’s prison path rather than the PHRJ jail locator.
- For federal or immigration custody that fits the person’s situation, use the BOP or ICE official locator.
West Virginia’s public-records provision is the request framework. It requires a response as soon as practicable and no later than five days excluding weekends and legal holidays, subject to exemptions. Actual reproduction costs may apply, but no verified Hampshire booking-photo fee schedule was found.
