Natualization Records on Fold3 Naturalization Records are very important to your genealogy research. Naturalization is the process by which an alien becomes an American citizen. It is a voluntary act. Naturalization is not required. Naturalization records can help you find the date, ship, and port of arrival, and the place of birth for your ancestor. How much information is found on them will depend on when the naturalization was done. The naturalization process did not have to happen in one court, or in one state. Not all aliens became citizens, and not all completed the process once they started it. Search NARA M1952. Index cards for locating naturalization records for soldiers serving in the U.S. Armed Forces during World War I index cards with names, dates of naturalization, court numbers, and certificate numbers of soldiers in WWI whose naturalizations were facilitated so they could serve in the US Armed Forces. The Declaration of Intention requirement was typically waived to speed up the process. Many soldiers filed petitions and were naturalized in the same day. Courts were often located at military bases. Browse the index by a soldier's last name, or search by given name, surname, base name, or court number Fold3 has searchable Natualization Records on Fold3 from NARA (National Archives).
