Hi NinjaLady,

Never mind, thanks very much for taking the time to look for Cornelius and Arthur. It's much appreciated.

Apologies - can't see anything on Ancestry!!

Tried the Naturalization Records, Passport Application, etc - nothing for Cornelius or his son Arthur.

There are some US Naturalization records on Ancestry.

Do you want to post the details?

Hi All, In 1881 my ancestor emigrated to American and became an American citizen naturalised in 1890. Does anyone know anything about this? Is it possible to get his naturalisation papers and if so where?

Thanks, Lou
