Naturalization Records were first recorded in Choctaw Nation, Indian
Territory, about 1889. In Pre-Statehood cases, the initial record was
referred to as "Oath of Allegiance". while after 1907 the document
was entitled "Declaration of Intention". Then there was a two
+ year waiting period until they could file the "Petition of Naturalization".

This project started in 2007 and finished its first printing 2016 -
During the project a multitude of technologies were used to scan the images,
During the reviews, some of the images were re-scanned with the technology
of that day and multiple images of the same item are included in this
document because different technologies will show different parts of the
document better - Many of the documents are done in very light green pencil,
in some cases these documents may have been scanned 5 times at different
settings to bring out the information, all these scans have been included
- In addition the previous to 2007, the library had scanned several of
the books, these scans have been included in PDF form, and in some cases
are better scans than the newer scans. If after all this you still want
a better copy, we recommend that you go to the Holding archives and have
the document re-scanned from the ordinal- These are depending on the document:
Oklahoma History Society (OHS), and The National Archives in DC - If you
wish to share these new scans with PCGHS, we will include them in the
next edition of this document.
Note: Every written document in the Books have been scanned, and are
included in this publication - in some cases the petitions included affidavits
and Questions not included in previous publications, We found these documents
to be as interesting as the petitions.
