I know that people had to file an intention of citizenship, and then sign the citizenship oath. My question is whether there is a file somewhere that contains more information, such as place of origin, date of birth, names of parents or family members, etc. I have found two guys, either of whom could be my g-g-g grandfather, but if I could find out more information, I could solve a really big puzzle. I have seen the intention pages and the oaths signed by them, and wondering if one of these documents has a file attached, that I could get from somewhere. I would have to imagine that a file was created, but I don't know if they were kept. Thanks,Frances

I believe there is very little information on naturalizations done 1905 & before. After that you can find the long form and many of them are online for the NY City area.
