Inez Curtis: Grand Larceny

Inez Clara Curtis was born Inez Clara Nichols Oct 1875 in Wisconsin  to Thomas J Nichols (1845-1909) and Clarissa Bayman (1843-1930). She married Charles L Curtis 29 Aug 1902, which is strange because she she was using his last name when she went to prison in 1901.




Inmate #18905 San Quentin Prison (California)
Rec: 4 Mar 1901
Crime: Grand Larceny
Term: 1 1/2 yrs
Discharged: 4 Jun 1902







Inez and William had 2 boys

Amos Edward Curtis 1903-1986
Charles Lewis Curtis 1911-1997




Daniel Curtaz I couldn't find any other information for, except he was a bartender. I guess he may have deserved the smacks for leaving her with the bag and getting off.





Inez died 11 May 1939 in San Bernardino, CA

  1. Amos Curtis is my maternal grandfather. I did not know my great-grandmother served time in prison before having my grandfather. Thank you for sharing.

    1. Not only was it odd that she used Mr. Curtis' name before marriage, she also conceived my Grandfather while in prison, unless he was born early? She was released in June, 1902, and Grandpa was born February 5, 1903.
