Passports Report - Summary By Court Location

This report summarizes, by court (or foreign consulate) location, USA passport applications relating to citizens of Armenian descent. The form used for a passport application was based upon how that person claimed citizenship: (1) native-born, (2) naturalized, or (3) by spouse or parent (who was a citizen). Starting around 1915, most passport applications were accompanied by a photo of the person or persons applying for the passport. In addition to the applicant, the passport application might include that person's spouse and/or their minor children.

This database table currently represents just a few of the communities in North America where Armenian immigrants can be found. The records abstracted are those where the images of the passport documents are available online. As more of these images become available, and as time permits, I will continue to expand the scope of this coverage. Volunteers are graciously providing assistance in transcribing records from other Armenian settlement communities.

To see what scope of records have been searched (or are currently being searched) for inclusion into this database table, press the button below.

Several options are presented below for customizing this report. By default, the report is includes both forms, sorted by court location. The scope of the report can be summarized at the court location detail level by unchecking the box labeled "Detail by Form Type?". The sort order can be changed to sort in descending order by count. (If sort is selected, a suppression filter can also be activated to not show the counts less than the desired percentage, in increments of 1%, 2%, 3%, etc.)
