I have transcribed and indexed the Irish born from three alien declaration films that were filed in Rensselaer County Court in Troy NY from 1859 to 1884. They cover not only Rensselaer county but many from the surrounding counties and MA and there are over 4,000 entries. You can access them at the Rensselaer County website at: http://www.connorsgenealogy.com/troy/ On the homepage, at the top, under Genealogy, click on Naturalization/Citizenship. You will notice at the top of the Naturalization webpage, I have included a new search engine to make your search a bit easier. I also have links to these records on my website (URL under my name), on the Troy webpage. -- Pat Connors, Sacramento CA http://www.connorsgenealogy.com All outgoing mail virus free, scanned by Norton
