Alcatraz Discussion Group/ After our last exchange of discussion on Alcatraz, I'm thinking if those members who are part of this group who live local, some...
I have a relative who served time around 1915 when the island was a disciplinary barracks. I have papers in which he is denied clemency. I was wondering...
Guess there was a story about Pitt being interested in the Birdman of Alcatraz. Variety reported a correction: "Brad Pitt will not be involved in "The Madman...
This sounds like a great idea! I wouldn't mind flying out for this if I can. The overnighter idea would be great! I have been wanting to do that years so I...
I have a question to ask I hope someone can help. They closed Alcatraz around 3/21/1963. They don't tell you where the remanding prisnors was sent until they...
John - Many were sent to Leavenworth. Since Alcatraz was a federal prison, they all got transfered to other federal prisons. You can find a list of current...
Heather thank you so much for your help I can continue my research from what you sent me. I look foward to seeing my results. Again Thank you John J. Olson...
Hi-- I just recently discovered that my great-grandfather was an inmate in Alcatraz from 1936 to its closing. I would like to learn as much about him as...

It looks like there hasn't been much in the way of posting in the past year. Who are the members of this group and what is their connection to the island? Kay...
Yeah, we're still here. We've just gotten busy. Personally, Alcatraz is just a hobby of mine that fascinates me. I've been involved in research for about 10...
Hi Heather! I was just wondering who all was in the group. Every now and then I feel like touching base with my old friends from the island. I haven't been...
Hi. I am a composer gathering recordings of sounds from locations around the U.S. for a multi-media performance in New York based on Jack Kerouac's classic ...
I am debating deleting this yahoo group. It's not active and I don't know if it's even remotely useful anymore. Any thoughts? If I get no replies - that will...
Dear Heather, I am still very interested in Alcatraz and its history. I am also still interested in getting a group together and possibly having a special...
Sounds like you have lots of ideas. I think it would be cool to get a group together too. Those kinds of things need to be planned out well in advance. We...
Better late then never I guess! Sorry, I switched email addresses a while back and I haven't updated my Yahoo. As long as the groups exists, I would post....
What catagory of folks belong to this group? Is it made up of just curiously interested people or ex inhabitants??? George- I'd like to haunt it for a while...
No particular category. Just folks interested in the island. While I am somewhat interested in the history of the Island, my real interest is ephemeral in...
George- I used to feel that way about Angel Island. I dreampt of going over there and living among the deer and such. I knew the inmates used to do the laundry...
Kay, If you think about it, the existing deterioration of the buildings on Alcatraz is just another part of the history of the Island. It all comes down to...
George, You are so right. I doubt if the ex-inmates have any fond memories of living there. I feel really bad about the poor Hopi leaders (and others) who were...
George, I just accidently have the program "Killer Instinct" on my tv right now. They showed part of the island. What the heck is that large tall building...
Hi there- I am in search of any information anyone may have regarding inmates that are still alive. My stepfather is one of them, Robert James Schibline,...
