Naturalization and Citizenship

For a comprehensive understanding of naturalization and citizenship records, study the article Germany Naturalization and Citizenship.

FamilySearch has microfilmed some 18th and 19th Century citizenship applications from Darmstadt. The information varies depending on the time period. Most importantly, the last place of residence and/or citizenship is listed in the record, along with identifying information about the person and family members.

Some citizenship records are also available in the set Darmstadt City Records available on FamilySearch.org.
