These records consist of lists of naturalization certificates of people who took civil service exams in New York City in 1905 and 1906, which were sent to the U. S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York for investigation.  The lists contain the name on the certificate, the date of the certificate, the issuing court, the occupation for which the examination was taken, and the place where the examination was given.

These records can be viewed onsite, by appointment, and scans can be requested for a fee. When contacting the National Archives, please provide the Name and Date. Note that this database includes all of the information that exists on these lists.

Records Search: Civil Service Naturalizations

Please note that the Surname (e.g. Last Name) is a required entry field. But since exact spellings are not always known, to aid your search we offer three different ways to specify Surnames...

  1. Exact Match ("is exactly") - This is the default surname search method.
  2. Soundex ("sounds like") - This option enables you to specify a surname spelling it out as best you can, and it will return results that "sound" similar to what you spelled out.
  3. Wild Card - With this option you can replace part of the surname with a * to match any number of letters, or _ to match a single letter. So for example, Sch* will return all names starting with Sch. Similarly, Schl_tz might return results such as Schlitz or Schlotz. 

NOTE: The wild card option applies ONLY to the surname. You can just enter the fist few letters of a First Name; the search automatically adds a wild card to the end of the First Name.

For whichever of the above surname search options you would like to use, simply select the appropriate radio button option below the input field on the form. Although the additional form fields are optional, providing as much information as you can helps narrow your search. The more specific your search, the less time you need spend scrolling through search results!

This database includes all of the information that exists on these records. But see the "About Database" page for instructions regarding viewing or ordering any record of interest.
