SANGAMON COUNTY, IL
NATURALIZATION RECORDS
1862 - 1864
These records have been copied from IRAD (Illinois Regional Archives Depository) in 1982. They have in their collection the Naturalization Records from 1860 through 1906. At the time we copied these, the years 1860 and 1861 were out to be repaired. Some of these were in pretty bad condition. They were folded twice, and had to be unfolded before copying, and some of them hand torn in the fold.
The Chicago Federal Archives and Records Center has some additional naturalization records for Sangamon County, and I believe some of them may be earlier than these.
