Jim you have to go to the county seat of where the veteran was living.Ask in the court house about Naturalization records. On his citizenship application it will have mention of his being a veteran and not having to be a resident for 5 years . New York like Pennsylvania required veterans to have been in country only 1 year and then they were eligible for citizenship. Everyone else had to wait 5 years.
