Citizenship Document Youdel H. Gouber, Washington Co. Maryland 1897

CITIZENSHIP DOCUMENT of YOUDEL H. GOUBEN in the STATE OF MARYLAND, WASHINGTON COUNTY, 1897

1 August 1897

On the 16th Sept 1897 Youdel Gorber [did] on 6th Sept 1884 declare his intentions before the Circuit Court of Washington County to become a citizen of the United States ... and .... renounced his allegiance ... to the Czar of Russia ... On the testimony of May Jaffe and Moses Leve? .. hath resided 5 years...

Search for Joudel in the 1900 U.S. census! I found him -- with some difficulty. He's indexed as Judel H Gerber and is living in Hagerstown, Washington, Maryland. He's with his wife Bessie and 6 children, ages 3 months to 10 years old. His sister in law lives with them, likely his wife's sister, so anyone researching this family will have his wife's maiden name. He's 33 years old and his year of immigration is given as 1893, a pretty good fit with his citizenship papers. Get help finding the rest of his Naturalization Records
