Lookup Chesterfield County Jail Annex Inmates

Chesterfield County Jail Annex Housing

The official sheriff history identifies the Chesterfield County Jail Annex as a separate inmate housing area added to the modern jail complex. The modern jail opened in 1962. A two-story wing followed in the 1970s, and the Annex was completed in spring 1994. The history page says the Annex was built to hold 115 inmates. That is the sourced capacity figure for the Annex.

The Annex should be read as part of local jail custody. It is not Riverside Regional Jail, not a VADOC prison, and not a federal or immigration detention facility. People housed through the Chesterfield County Jail Annex remain within the county jail system operated by the Chesterfield County Sheriff's Office. The public-facing phone, bond, mail, canteen, property, and visitation routes follow the main jail unless jail staff give a different instruction for a specific person or housing status.

That distinction prevents a common lookup error. A searcher may hear the word annex and assume there is a separate roster, separate address, or separate set of visiting hours. The research did not support that. Use the main jail's contact lines and public-record route for named-person questions, and use the VADOC locator only if the person has moved into state custody or state supervision.

The sheriff's history page is the image source that documents the Annex as part of Chesterfield's jail development. It gives useful local context for why the Annex has a separate page even though public service routes remain tied to the main jail.

The Annex entry belongs to the same jail history that traces Chesterfield's early jails, the modern 1962 jail, the 1970s wing, and the 1994 Annex addition.

Chesterfield County Jail Annex Capacity

The Annex has one sourced facility-specific number: 115 inmates. The research ties that figure to the sheriff's history page and the spring 1994 completion of the annex housing area. Current annex-only headcount was not located. Chesterfield's public jail-demographics dashboard reports aggregate people housed in Chesterfield County Jail, not a clean split by building or annex bed assignment in the research text.

For a named person, the useful question is not whether the public can see the annex headcount. It is whether the person is currently in Chesterfield County Sheriff's Office custody and what the jail requires for contact, mail, bond, or release.

Chesterfield Annex Inmate Lookup

No official public roster specific to Chesterfield County Jail Annex was located. No official public name-search roster for Chesterfield County Jail was located either. The best lookup path is the same fallback chain used for the main jail: call the jail for current custody, use the magistrate for bond, use the FOIA portal for non-online booking records, use VINE for custody notifications, and use VADOC when a person has left local jail for state custody or supervision.

1. Call 804-748-1476 and ask whether the person is in Chesterfield County Jail custody.
2. Provide full name, date of birth if known, and an arrest or court date if available.
3. Ask whether the question is a custody, bond, release, mail, property, or visitation issue.
4. For bond, contact the adjoining Magistrate's Office at 804-748-1410.
5. For records not confirmed by phone, submit a specific FOIA request through the county portal.

FOIA requests should use plain terms such as booking record, commitment record, release record, bond information, or adult arrestee photograph. Include enough identifying detail for staff to locate the record. Virginia law and local exemptions may limit some records, but the county process is the official path for records not published on a web roster.

Chesterfield Annex Contact

The Annex does not have a separately sourced public phone route in the research. Use the Chesterfield County Jail contact block. The same campus handles main jail public access, magistrate bond activity, release processing, property, and canteen questions. Do not send mail to a different annex address unless jail staff give that instruction for a specific inmate.

Property questions have a separate route. Court clothing pickup and drop-off uses 804-318-8422, while approved physical item questions use 804-768-7345. Canteen Office questions use 804-748-1488.

Chesterfield Annex Visit Rules

Annex visit rules follow Chesterfield County Jail rules unless staff provide a different housing-specific instruction. The official jail page describes video visits and special in-person visits, not a separate annex schedule. Visitors must be registered, adults must present valid photo identification, and minors must be with an adult. All video visits are monitored and recorded by jail security staff.

For preapproval, call 804-748-1829 or 804-768-7327. A visitor should not assume approval based on distance alone. Jail supervisors decide whether a special visit is allowed, and the four-person maximum still applies when approved.

Chesterfield Annex Mail and Money

Mail and money rules are main jail rules for the Annex. Mail must include the inmate's name and inmate number. The mailing address is Chesterfield County Jail, P.O. Box 758, Chesterfield, VA 23832. The research did not find a separate annex mail processing address or a scan-and-destroy policy, so those claims should not be added. Approved physical items have front-lobby limits and require approval before drop-off.

Phone calls also follow the jail's intake rules. Initial incarceration calls are free and last three minutes. After the person moves to regular housing, usually within one day, calls become collect calls and may last up to 30 minutes.

Chesterfield Annex Jail History

The Annex name has local meaning. Chesterfield's sheriff history says earlier annex jails existed because prisoners were difficult to transport by horse. The 1994 Annex revived that term for the modern jail complex. The history also gives context for why jail space changed over time: the first jail held three people, the 1892 jail was overcrowded by the 1930s, the 1962 jail opened as the modern base, and new wings were added as the population grew.

That history does not change lookup rules. A person held in the Annex is still part of the Chesterfield County Jail system. Bond, release, mail, canteen, property, and visit confirmation should come from the jail, not from unofficial inmate sites or commercial mugshot pages. For broader current county jail lookup guidance, the Chesterfield County inmate records page explains the phone, FOIA, VINE, court, and VADOC fallback chain.
