This is a private reference site, not Madison County, the sheriff's office, the jail, TDCJ, or a court office. We cannot verify whether someone is in custody, release a person, post bond, schedule visitation, or retrieve official booking records for you. Use the official offices below for those requests.
Where to Route a Madison County Custody Question
For local jail custody, start with the Madison County Jail and sheriff's office contacts published by the county. The jail is at 2005 E. Main Street, Madisonville, Texas 77864, and the sheriff's office is separately listed at 3301 E. Main Street, Madisonville, Texas 77864. The public phone for jail and sheriff routing is 936-348-2755, with callers instructed to follow prompts. The sheriff page also lists jail fax 936-245-1990 and sheriff's office fax 936-348-3763.
Madison County does not publish general jail lobby hours in the research source. It does publish visitation hours: female inmates daily from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. and male inmates daily from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., with appointments scheduled at least 24 hours in advance. The sheriff page also links the Interop roster, JailATM deposits, a public-records request form, and a public criminal-history request form.
- For someone held at Madison County Jail, use jail inmate records, then call 936-348-2755 if the roster does not answer the question.
- For booking-photo questions, use jail roster mugshots and the sheriff's public-records request route when the roster does not show what you need.
- For charges filed after an arrest, use court records after a jail arrest. District Clerk Rhonda Savage is listed at 101 W. Main Street, Room 226, Madisonville, TX 77864, phone 936-241-6212. County Clerk Adrian Lawson is listed at 103 W. Trinity Street, Suite 104, Madisonville, TX 77864, phone 936-241-6210, with public hours Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m.-4:30 p.m.
- For a specific facility, use the facility pages linked in the footer for Madison County Jail and Jim Ferguson Unit.
- For a sentenced Texas state prisoner, use the Texas Department of Criminal Justice inmate search rather than the Madison County roster. Jim Ferguson Unit is a TDCJ prison at 12120 Savage Drive, Midway, TX 75852, phone 936-348-3751.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the Federal Bureau of Prisons inmate locator or ICE Online Detainee Locator System. Madison County research did not locate a BOP or ICE detention facility physically in the county.
