It is important to remember a few things about the Naturalization
Process;
There were 3 steps to this process; Declaration of Intent, Petition (Final Papers),
the Naturalization Certificate. These steps could have well been done in very different
areas
From 1790 to 1922, wives of naturalized men automatically became citizens.
This also meant that an alien woman who married a U.S. citizen automatically became
a citizen.
From 1790 to 1940, children under the age of twenty-one automatically
became naturalized citizens upon the naturalization of their father
