Heritage with Hoopla: Ancestors in Naturalization Records

Did your immigrant ancestors become U.S. citizens? Did they procrastinate, or not naturalize at all? Join us as we wander through Hoopla's "Discovering Your Roots: An Introduction to Genealogy" using The Great Courses series. First up, Dr. Colletta reveals how naturalization records can answer these and other biographical questions. You'll focus on adapting your research to three major naturalization periods: prior to 1790, 1790 to 1906, and 1906 to today.

No registration is required! Attendees will be seated on a first-come, first-served basis. Seating is limited to 18. Please arrive early as the program will start right on time.
