About This Site

Pendleton County uses West Virginia's regional jail system, so finding a person in custody often means looking beyond the courthouse area in Franklin. This private site organizes the main public paths for Pendleton County jail custody, Potomac Highlands Regional Jail and Correctional Facility, WVDCR locators, court records, and related search resources.

Why This Resource Exists

West Virginia makes many jail, court, and public-record materials available, but Pendleton County records are split across several offices and systems. The Pendleton County Sheriff's Office handles local law-enforcement work, including prisoner transportation, while adult jail custody for the county is handled through Potomac Highlands Regional Jail and Correctional Facility in Augusta. Sentenced state-prison and parole records move through the West Virginia Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation, and federal or immigration custody uses separate BOP or ICE tools. This site brings those different search paths, facility details, request steps, and public contacts into one Pendleton County reference.

Some pages may include search tools supplied by outside providers. Those providers control their own pricing, signup terms, search coverage, and results.
