The Bishop’s Record, found in a safe on the YFZ Ranch, is a record of families whose fathers lived on the Schleicher County polygamist compound, according to court testimony last month.

The record, released Thursday by Tom Green County District Court, contains names, ages and locations for many of the men, women and children of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints living at the ranch.

Most of those listed are said to live at “R17,” a code name for the YFZ Ranch.

“Short Creek” is a former name for the twin FLDS-controlled cities of Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Ariz.

The state of Texas introduced the document as part of its evidence during a child custody hearing involving the more than 400 FLDS children removed from the YFZ ranch as part of an investigation into a “pervasive pattern and practice” of forced “marriages” and sexual abuse.

As of today, 464 children are in the state’s custody, including a boy born this week.
