Naturalizations Report - Birth Place By Residence

Armenian communities in different parts of America have their own unique demographic makeups in terms of birth place of the immigrants. This report shows the birth places (as stated on the naturalization applications), for all Armenian immigrants living in a particular state/province, or for a town or city within that state/provice.

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 naturalization 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.

The birth places for a particular residence address are shown at the level of the birth state or province (in the USA or Canada), or vilayet (in the case of the Ottoman Empire). For other birth places, only the country is shown. Ottoman kazas and towns are rolled up into the vilayet in which they are located (Keghi within Erzurum, Harput within Mamuretulaziz, Evereg within Ankara, Mush within Bitlis, etc.).

Some residence addresses are a neighborhood within a city (e.g., Dorchester within Boston). If the city name is selected, the results will include all neighborhoods within that city. Alternately, the neighborhood itself may be selected (e.g., Boston (Dorchester)), restricting results to just that neighborhood.
