What's included in citizenship records? Citizenship records include information such as: | |||
*date of arrival in Australia | |||
*ship or flight travelled on | |||
*town and country of birth | |||
*names of other family members | |||
*education | |||
*profession | |||
*address in Australia at the time of naturalisation<br> | |||
"The National Archives holds Commonwealth naturalisation and citizenship records from 1904 onwards. We also have naturalisation records for the Colony of Victoria from 1848 to 1903 and the Province of South Australia before 1904. We hold two main types of citizenship records: | |||
*naturalisation certificates (up to 1962) | |||
*naturalisation case files<br> | |||
Case files give more detail than certificates. They include: | |||
*the citizenship application | |||
*the oath of allegiance | |||
*other documents<br> | |||

"The ARK is held by 40 community access points across NSW. The majority of access points are libraries. The ARK consists of microfilm copies of our most popular and heavily used colonial records. Included are records relating to '''convict arrivals, assisted immigrants, births, deaths and marriages, publicans' licences, electoral rolls, naturalisation, returns of the colony ('Blue Books'), land grants, and the wide range of functions of the Colonial Secretary (1788-1825)'''. You may find that the ARK (or parts of it) are held at a library near you." <ref>"Archive Resource Kit," New South Wales State Archives and Records, https://www.records.nsw.gov.au/archives/collections-and-research/guides-and-indexes/archives-resources-kit-ark, accessed 3 March 2022.</ref> | |||
