Biography
Cris Pedersen was an IWW member from Sacramento. Cris Pedersen received a five-year prison sentence, which he served in San Quentin from September 17, 1923, to 1926.
The International Labor Defense holiday roster in the December 29, 1925 Daily Worker lists this prisoner, printed as C. Pedersen, at San Quentin California. Its printed identifier is 38360; this is a prison number or mailing designation, not a year or a custody date. This documents confinement at the roster’s reporting time, without establishing an admission, transfer, release, new conviction or complete duration. Existing independently sourced custody chronology remains separate. Source: https://www.marxists.org/history/usa/pubs/dailyworker/1925/1925-ny/v02b-n297-NYE-dec-29-1925-DW-LOC.pdf#page=5
The February 26, 1924 Daily Worker political-prisoner roster individually prints Chris. Pederson with historical prisoner number 38360. Its continued Walla Walla heading appears to run into California prisoners, while this individual’s existing record documents San Quentin. The printed identifier is transcribed; no transfer to Washington or institution change is inferred from that heading. This is a contemporary institutional identifier, not a federal BOP register number. No admission or release date, individual sentence length, actual duration, organizational membership or present status is inferred.
