Grandads Certificate of Naturalization

Post by NextMove »

I have just found the above in my Mothers papers. Any idea how I can find out where he went (if anywhere) from the address on the certificate, which is in Brooklyn?
Thank you.

If you know the court of issuance, you can request his declaration of intent and petition for naturalization. It will have the street address and how he arrived in the US. Possibly provide the name, age, DOB and we can see if we can help.

Yes, that address is on his naturalization certificate. Any idea how I follow him from there?

I went to the National Archives in NYC a few weeks ago, and was able to pull up tons of Census records/WW draft registrations, address books, etc.... You might want to follow a trail that way

You can order his immigration document (Petition for Naturalization and Declaration of Intent).

Copies of the naturalization papers can be obtained from the National Archives by using this form. Copies can also be made at the National Archives, One Bowling Green 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10004 and are much cheaper since you only pay for photocopying charges.
Documents can be ordered using a credit card at:

If you go to the Archives and dont need certified copies, then all the printing is free onsight. I printed a ton of stuff while there

Not sure tbh, I thought he was older when he died? My Mum and brother went over to America to visit, would mean my brother was only 6yrs old, I thought he was older.
