Hi Listers, I've found an index reference for my Gr-Gr-Grandfather's declaration of intention (or naturalization). I'm wondering if anyone has a resource to do a lookup on it (other than making a request through the library, which I'll do if necessary). I'm interested in any info contained, specifically his birthplace, parents' names, etc. Any advice or direction appreciated. Here's what I've found on Ancestry: Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, 1500s-1900s Record info about Charles Floom: Name: Charles Floom Year: 1809-1852 Place: Ohio Source Publication Code: 4511.35 Primary Immigrant: Floom, Charles Annotation: Date and place of declaration of intention or of naturalization. Extracted from Stark County Common Pleas Journals, on microfilm at the Stark County District Library. Page reference to original record is also provided. Source Bibliography: LANDIS, LAUREN K. Index to the Naturalization Records of Stark County, Ohio (1809-1852). Canton, OH: The Stark County District Library, 1994. 62p. Page: 14 Since Charles is listed as "Primary Immigrant", I'm also interested to learn who else he might have traveled with & what ship they arrived on. Family lore claims he traveled with Francis X. FLOOM (Pflume?) - who could have been a brother or uncle. Many thanks in advance for any assistance, Mercedes in Arizona Happily researching Farley's of Ireland, PA & OH. Flooms of Germany & OH, Lentz's in IN & OH. Savage's of Co. Durham, England. Massi's & Manzo's of Italy and NY. Allen's & Edwards' in Ont., CAN and more.
