| '''Registration of Aliens'''<br>From 1798 to 1828 an "Alien Report and Registry" was required of all aliens. Each alien was to gave details on when and where they arrived, and sometimes names of family members. The Alien report was a Federal requirement and the records do not always survive. In New York State some counties (notably St. Lawrence) maintained separate registers of Alien Reports, but in most cases if the report survived, it is included as a loose paper with the Declaration of Intention or in the court minutes. Records are at the county courthouse and sometimes on microfilm at the [[New York Naturalization and Citizenship#Family_History_Library|Family History Library]].<br> | | '''Registration of Aliens'''<br>From 1798 to 1828 an "Alien Report and Registry" was required of all aliens.
