I have found several documents requesting naturalization by the same relative. Since all list the exact names and birthdates of his children and wife, the same ship and arrival date, it seems like this is in fact the same person.
1st document is a Declaration of Intent in 1920. 2nd document is Petition for Naturalization in 1923. Then comes a 3rd doc.. a Petition for Citizenship in 1932. (with a statement that he filed his Declaration of Intent in 1927. I thought I read somewhere that no more than 7 years can pass between Declaration of Intent and Petition.. is this true? Is that why he filed a second petition? Is Petition for Naturalization the same as Petition for Citizenship, but they changed the name of the form? If it were not for the names of the children and birthdates, I might think they were two different people. It sure has me confused ??? Any thoughts appreciaited.
