Hi Sandra, Kew hold the Prison Records that you need , you won't get any info from any prison about prisoners or records. Write or get in touch with Kew giving as much info as you can. Chrissy.

Sandra, Are the initials NW his first names or is N his first name and W his surname? even so it's well worth trying Kew as you have initials the year and the prison. Chrissy.
