The Foreign-Born
Voters of California
in 1872 - Database Index
compiled by
Jim W. Faulkinbury, CGSM
This is webbase includes an
alphabetized listing of 61,691 records from the "Great Registers" of each
California county of 1872. This database is organized to present a statewide
index including the surname and
given name of the voter, age at year of registration (not necessarily 1872) , country or place of birth and record
number.
Major Source of Naturalization Details: One of the important features of
this database is that, in requiring the registrants to prove their citizenship,
about 70% of the listed entries include naturalization
details - specific date, specific location and specific court!
The Web-Base has been
broken into several files each containing approximately 2,000 records. The
following links will take you to the Web-Base file that contains the records
starting with the name on the link.
