John, Hope this helps......... Naturalization papers are held in with the county at that time. You might want to request the file for "First Paper's" though. They usually contain all the information that is more to a genealogical resource than the actual Naturalization papers themself. the Probate "First Papers" box is # 114. Since the Nationization boxes are many, and cover many years I would go for copying the box of first papers. But if you know what year they were naturalized we have the box numbers.....they are all there in Washington County. Let me know. Would be glad to help you on this one........
