Finding Someone in Custody in Hall County
A person kept in custody after an arrest in Hall County is held at the county jail, run by the Hall County Sheriff's Office, whichever agency made the arrest.
SearchSystems opened and checked the jail page of the Hall County Sheriff's Office at co.hall.tx.us/page/hall.Sheriff (page title: Hall County, Texas), phone 806-259-2151, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., which answered when SearchSystems opened it on September 30, 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 806-259-2151.
