Finding Someone in Custody in Morrow County
The county jail, run by the Morrow County Sheriff's Office, holds everyone kept in custody after an arrest in Morrow County, from every agency.
SearchSystems opened and checked the jail page of the Morrow County Sheriff's Office at morrowcountysheriff.com/correctional-facility (page title: Correctional Facility | Morrow County Sheriff Office), phone 002-345-6789, wed 7 days a week and times: 8am - 11am, which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 24, 2026.
That page is the office's jail information page rather than a roster, so a search for a particular person goes through the office at 002-345-6789.
