Indexed Counties

---

Through the hard work of dedicated volunteers, many of our naturalization records are indexed. These records are primarily organized by county because they were created at the county level. There are additional counties that have not been indexed or whose indexes are too large to put online. Click to our Guide to Immigration and Naturalization records for a complete list.

The indexes are in PDF format (Adobe Acrobat Reader required). If you find a relative, you can order a copy of these records through our online store. Be sure to note the county of naturalization, approximate date, and citation when ordering a naturalization record.

Last but not least, misspellings and name variations often occur in old records. Please be aware of this when searching.
