Clare County Record Contacts
The Clare County Sheriff's Office and jail are at 255 W. Main Street, Harrison, MI 48625. Call (989) 539-7166; the jail control room is extension 213. The official Sheriff page does not publish separate records-office hours, so confirm availability by phone. Written Sheriff records requests may be emailed to vanwagnerl@clareco.net. County-wide FOIA mail goes to Clare County FOIA Coordinator, 225 W. Main Street, P.O. Box 438, Harrison, MI 48625, or FOIA@clareco.net.
- For a booking photo, intake record, recent arrest, or release question, use the county search and records guide, then contact the Sheriff.
- For a warrant, call the Sheriff or the 80th District Court rather than relying on an unofficial listing.
- For custody alerts, check MI-VINE and confirm Clare participation in the live service.
- For a sentenced state prisoner, use Michigan Department of Corrections OTIS, which is not a county-jail roster.
- For federal or immigration custody, use the federal BOP or ICE locator that matches the agency holding the person.
