Some of the documents referred to on this page must be viewed in Adobe Acrobat Reader . The following indexes have been created by the generous efforts of volunteers at the State Archives of Michigan. Each index has been transcribed from the original hand-written index.
Early handwriting varies in legibility and is sometimes undecipherable.
Archives' volunteers attempted to include all possible spellings of a particular name, however, misspellings and variations of names appear in these indexes. Please take these points into consideration when reviewing the index so as to allow for a thorough search. New indexes will be added to the Web site as they are completed. We have recently discovered some missing volumes in these naturalization indexes. In an attempt to offer the most complete and accurate information to our researchers, we have temporarily removed these indexes from the Web site for maintenance.
