Bedford Hills Womens Reformatory

Genealogical Inquiries

Am trying to find any information about why my grandmother was spent time at Bedford Hills Reformatory in about 1927/1928. I believe she would have given birth during her time there as well. I have contacted Westchester County archives, NY state archives, Bedford Hills Historical Society to name a few. My last hope is to page through port chester or New Rochelle newspapers to see if her arrest or sentence would have made the papers? I am in Washington State and can request those through inter-library loan. If anyone has a suggestion I would be very grateful!
