...State Prison on the census.? The census yrs are 1920 and 1930. The majority of inmates at this prison were Italian immigrants. I am trying to find out if they were sent there arbitrarily or if there was real crime committed by that many immigrants. It looks like they arrived at the same time from Italy. I can't seem to find prison records to explain it.
Has anyone else ran in to this while doing genealogy? I'm not sure if the name is a relative, but I would like to find out why so many were inprisoned there.
