Tracing an immigrant ancestor requires more than simply finding a ship manifest or a naturalization certificate. People crossing borders often changed or anglicized their names, traveled with relatives, and may have filed citizenship papers in multiple courts. This section explains how to use U.S. federal records, port records, naturalization files, and modern research techniques to trace migrants from their country of origin to their new home and to verify their identities and relationships.
