Baylor County Offenders are Housed in Other Jails - see list

Baylor County runs no jail, so a person arrested by Sheriff Darcy White’s deputies is booked into another county’s jail. Check IVSS County Inmate Search first: search the name under Wichita County; a hit identifies the jail where the Baylor County arrestee sits, changes when that jail books, frees or moves the person, and can send a no-cost release notice (help 866-268-8959).

Visiting a Baylor County Inmate

Seymour has no jail, so a visit with someone arrested in Baylor County takes place at the jail that holds them. The Baylor County Sheriff’s Office’s 2026 update names the Wichita County Jail in Wichita Falls as that jail, so the visit follows Wichita County’s schedule, sign-up and rules on its Wichita County Jail visiting page.

1. Make sure Wichita Falls still has them. Search the name under Wichita County in IVSS County Inmate Search, or phone the Baylor County Sheriff’s Office at 940-889-3333 (weekdays, 101 S. Washington Street, Seymour).
2. Book under Wichita County’s rules. Visit days, the video-visit vendor, ID and dress code are set by the Wichita County Jail, not by Seymour.
3. Carry a government ID and the number Wichita County assigned. The Baylor County charges stay with the 50th District Court and the County Court in Seymour, so court dates do not move with the person.

On the day of the visit, check with the Wichita County Jail that the prisoner hasn’t been moved.
