Rockland County Archivist Peter J. Scheibner has made available an index to his naturalization records. The index is comprised of 38 files, ordered alphabetically by last name, which is now stored as part of the USGenWeb archives at ftp://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/ny/rockland/court/naturalizations . The papers include Declarations of Intention and other naturalization-related papers originally filed with the County Clerk from 1812 to 1991. See http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyrockla/rcnaturalizations.htm for details on what is in the index files and how to order copies of naturalization documents that you identify in the index files. The folks at RootsWeb still plan to eventually make a search engine available, so that you would not have to download the index files. However, they cannot commit to a date when such a search engine might be available. Note: the Family History Library also filmed these records; FHC film#s 1031321, 1031322, 1031323, and 1029977. However, Pete Scheibner considers his more recent filming to be of better quality. --Bruce (Bruce Hamilton, Redondo Beach, CA) bhami@netcom.com http://home.earthlink.net/~bhami/
