    3. Hello, Where can I get a copy of the naturalization records from 1798? I believe that Daniel Drummond of Antrim is my gggggg-grandfather. On ancestry plus I found this: Immigrant: Drummond, Daniel Location: South Carolina Year: 1798 Publication: HOLCOMB, BRENT H. South Carolina Naturalizations, 1783-1850. Baltimore: Genealogical Publish 1985. 255p. Port and date of arrival, or place and date of application or admission. Many records give country of orig residence in America, and occupation. Page Number: 118 Document Type: Immigrant Record Source: Passenger and Immigration Lists Index Then in "A Collection of Upper South Carolina Genealogical and Family Records" vol. 2 p. 79 there was this: Drummond, Daniel Pack 2. Clerk of the Court Office. Anderson, S.C. Pendleton Dist. To the Honr. The associate Judges of said state. The humble petition of Daniel Drummond a native of the County Antrim in the Kingdom of Ireland, sheweth that he has resided U. S. A. fifteen years and the whole time within this State. Your petitioner is desirous of becoming a citizen of this U.S. Therefore your petitioner prays that you would admit him to the rights and privileges of citizenship. We do certify that we have known Danl. Drummond for five yrs. And that he is a man of good moral character. Signed: John T. Lewis, Patrick Norris, John McFalls, James Todd, Newman Moore, John Bryce, J.P., E. Herrin, J.P., Nathan McAlister, Andrew McAlister. Dated 26 October 1813. When he renounce and adjure all allegiance and fidelity to every foreign power, his name is given as David Drummond. Dated 26 October 1813. Signed: David Drummond. Does this mean Daniel changed his name to David? Where could I get a copy of the original? Thank you, Glen http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~gdrummondjr/
