When was alcatraz prison established?

Alcatraz Island's use as a military prison began as early as December 1859. In November 1933 the Attorney General selected James Aloysius Johnston to be the first warden at U.S. Penitentiary, Alcatraz. He took office as warden on January 2, 1934, at first maintaining his office in San Francisco. On April 5 he moved into the commandant's quarters on the island. On June 19, 1934, 87 years of the U.S. Army on Alcatraz had ended - except for 32 hard-case prisoners, who remained on the island in federal custody, turned over to the Justice Department to become the first penitentiary inmates. The army commandant officially turned Alcatraz over to the new warden on June 20, 1934. On July 1, the Attorney General officially ordered the establishment of the U.S. Penitentiary at Alcatraz Island.
