In the 1920 census, they both lived in Lewiston, but by the 1930 census, they were in Buffalo. (Mary was born in 1898, and died in 1977.) She always spoke about being naturalized, but where would I get a copy of the naturalization record or document? Also, I'm not sure if my grandfather, Biagio (or William) Palestine, was naturalized or not, as he died when I was just a child. Is there a way of finding out this info? His year of birth was 1891 (in Giulianova, Italy) and the year of his death was 1957 (in Buffalo). Thanks ahead of time.
