NATURALIZATIONS
MARSHALL COUNTY, INDIANA
1854 to 1929


From: Marshall County Roots and Branches, Vol. 15, No. 3, July, 1994, Judy McCollough, Editor and Compiler

A roll of microfilm is available in the Marshall County Historical Museum Genealogy Library showing most of the naturalizations that occurred in Marshall County prior to 1920. Some names appear in the index referring to page numbers that were not microfilmed, and other pages exist that were not indexed in the front of the book. An attempt has been made to include every record in the library's surname index file. Extracts appear below. The original records of the first book give not only the information below but also told where the person sailed from and where they arrived in the United States. By 1913, the records included a physical description of the person, their birth date and place, occupation, current and former residences, and the name of the ship. Please make allowances for misinterpreted handwriting. Note also that the age given is an approximate age at the time of naturalization and not at the time of arrival.
