All four of them became citizens at some point. If they arrived by boat as my grandparents did in 1907, it's doubtful that they entered the USA illegally. I recently came across my grandfather's naturalization papers. He arrived from Sweden in 1907 at the age of 17 and became naturalized in 1916. By then he was married and had one son, my uncle, who was 10 years older than my father. My uncle was a marine engineer. He and I shared the same birthday (Oct 19th) although obviously he was here many years before me. More newcomers ;-) |
