Texas Naturalizations to circa 1906 Plus an 1898 School List of Foreign Born Parents: Gonzales County

Before 1906, immigrants to the United States could file their citizenship papers in any federal, state or local court. After 1906, the various papers related to applying for citizenship were forwarded to the Federal Immigration and Naturalization Service.

On the microfilm, entries are listed in order of date of application, beginning in 1883. Here we have presented them alphabetically. The age listed is assumed to be the applicants age at time of application, rather than age at time of entry.

This booklet contains an extra feature, the results of a school survey which details the family structure (generally, childrens' names, place of birth, ages or dates of birth, etc).
