What’s Included in this Database:

This database includes eight volumes. Seven of the volumes cover from 1798 to 1906 and one volume is a list of those who petitioned for naturalization from 1930 to 1959. Certificate of Naturalization stubs and the certificate itself are available for more recent dates. The Federal district Courts took over the naturalization process in 1906, so the naturalization papers and applications from 1906 onward aren’t held in state archives, but at the National Archives.

The naturalization records may contain:

  • Name of individual
  • Native country
  • Date of naturalization
  • Residence
  • Occupation
  • Birth date
  • Date and place of arrival
  • Children’s names
