Official Ellsworth County Contacts
The county website does not publish an inmate roster, recent-booking feed, or separate records-unit hours. For a current county custody check or a specific booking sheet or photograph, start with the sheriff and ask about its current Kansas Open Records Act procedure.
Ellsworth County Sheriff's Office and Jail
212 N Kansas Ave
Ellsworth, KS 67439
Phone and non-emergency dispatch: 785-472-4416
For a filed case or final disposition, use the Kansas District Court Public Access Portal or contact Ellsworth District Court at 785-472-4052. The court publishes weekday hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and the clerk email EW.DCPublic@kscourts.gov. Those are court hours, not sheriff records hours.
- For a county booking sheet or photo, follow the records-request steps on the home page and contact the sheriff.
- For a possible county warrant, use the safe court-and-sheriff route in Sheriff's Most Wanted.
- For a very recent arrest or custody check, call the sheriff because there is no official online roster or arrest log.
- For custody alerts, use Kansas VINE; it is not a mugshot archive and does not replace sheriff confirmation.
- For Ellsworth, Wilson, or Kanopolis incident records, begin with the arresting police department and confirm whether the sheriff handled booking.
- For a sentenced Kansas prisoner or state supervision record, use the Kansas Department of Corrections KASPER search.
- For federal custody use the Bureau of Prisons locator; for immigration detention use the ICE Online Detainee Locator System.
