1:00 pm to 2:30 pm PDT
Speaker: Christine Cohen
Topic: Naturalization and Citizenship
Sorensen Library Meeting Room
6934 Broadway Ave, Whittier CA 90606

Naturalization is the process by which an alien becomes an American citizen. These records can provide a researcher with valuable information such as an ancestor’s person's birth date, birth location in the old country, occupation , immigration year, marital status, spouse information, witnesses' names and addresses. Naturalization and the individual steps to citizenship could be done at any “court of record” of which there were 5,000 in the United States.
The virtual doors will open between noon and 12:30 p.m. and those of you who join online can chat with one another on Zoom before the meeting begins at 1:00 p.m.
