Sometimes naturalization records for an ancestor are the only way to discover the family origins and that all-important ships passenger list.
Naturalization records can help you find the date of immigration, ship's passenger list, port of arrival, and the place of birth for your ancestor. Some naturalization records include occupations, names and ages of minor children, names and birth dates and places of spouses --- and more!
There is a wealth of genealogical information just waiting for you in your search for an ancestor.

File Not Found when I tried to access Minnesota naturalization records. Same problem I so often have with links on Cyndi's List, alas.
ReplyDeleteThere are several links to data on my Minnesota pages and I don't know which one didn't work for you.
ReplyDeleteI can start going through them but if you can provide a URL of the page you were ON, and the NAME of the record you were clicking on when you got a File Not Found, I would appreciate it
