Becoming American: Tracing Naturalization Records
Your immigrant ancestor's journey to citizenship left behind a rich paper trail. This five-part series teaches you to find and read it. Learn the naturalization process from 1790 to 1954, follow a case study through hands-on searching, uncover the unique naturalization records of women under 'derivative citizenship,' and dig into the WWII 'enemy alien' laws that reclassified ordinary immigrants overnight. Trace the path from alien to citizen!
