Gallia County Inmate Population is a private reference site, not a government office. We cannot confirm whether someone is in custody, release an inmate, post bond, schedule a visit, or pull an official booking record. Use the official contacts below for custody, records, bond, jail, and court questions.
Official Gallia Contacts
The Gallia County Sheriff's Office and Gallia County Jail are the local starting points for current custody, booking, jail-record, and facility questions. Sheriff Matt Champlin's office lists the administrative office separately from the jail, so use the contact that fits the issue.

For a current local booking, start with jail inmate records and then call the jail if the roster is stale, unclear, or missing a release detail. For a booking photo issue, use jail roster mugshots. For charges filed after booking, use court records after a jail arrest and the court listed on the roster.
Where to Look
Use the correct system for the person's custody path. A person in the Gallia County Jail is not searched the same way as a person sentenced to an Ohio prison or held in federal custody.
- Current county jail custody: use the Gallia County Sheriff's inmate-search page and the linked JDS roster, then call Gallia County Jail at 740-441-2054 if status must be verified.
- Official booking records or older jail material: use the sheriff's public-record request form and include the name, date, arresting agency, report number, or Jail ID if known.
- Facility questions: use the Gallia County Jail facility page and confirm visit, mail, money, and property details with jail staff before acting.
- Sentenced Ohio prison custody: search the ODRC Offender Search by name, number, or County of Commitment: Gallia.
- Federal custody: use the BOP inmate locator for federal prisoners from 1982 forward.
- Immigration custody: use the ICE Online Detainee Locator System for ICE detainees.
- Custody notifications: use VINELink, which is referenced by the Gallia County Prosecutor's victim-services information.
