Event Details
Professional genealogist Jenny Warner introduces us to naturalization records, an important but often overlooked resource in genealogy research. This presentation examines the naturalization process and how it changed over time, as well as the documents created along the way. Attendees will learn what kind information can be found in declarations, petitions, and certificates of naturalization, and how these records can help uncover immigration stories, family origins, and personal details about ancestors seeking citizenship.
