I keep watching the Passenger and Immagration database for Andrew Eichman my gggrandfather b 1841 Baden d Avilla, Ind abt 1909. All I see is the notation on the Index.
Andrew Eichman
yr 1862
Place Philadelphia
Call Sec II Alphabetical Index of Naturalization Records, 1794-1880 Maritime Records, Port of Philadelphia
then on the same page
source bibliography: US Works Projecs Administration Index to Records of Aliens Declaration of Intentions and/or Oaths of Allegience 1789-1880 in US Circuit Court, US District Ct., Supreme Coutrt of PA, Quarter Sessions Ct, Court of Common Pleas, PA Compiled by WPA Project #20837 (Harrisburg) PA Historical Comm (1940) 25 vols in 11 Vol 3le 75p pg 25
I guess the question is are you going to get access to these records and not just the indexes? I wrote for the Naturalization records from the court and it said Andrew had to have been in the states 10 yrs-3 in Pa-before naturalization was granted. His petition was signed by Charles G. Schenkle. Thanks for your help
