DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Location | Reel |
SAM 56-I | 1 | 1867-circa 1938.
|
| | | Microfilm copy of a personal name card index to final papers, vols. A-F,
1867-1906; and to petition and record (final papers), vols. 1 [cited as vol. G
on the index cards] to 5 (part), 1907-circa 1938. |
| | | The index gives volume and page number for each entry. The cards also include
the date of naturalization, which serves as a supplemental finding aid. |
| | | The cards were not checked for completeness or correct alphabetical order prior
to microfilming. Researchers who do not find a card for a particular individual
in its proper place should search the index further and/or consult the
naturalization records, many of which contain indexes. |
