Naturalization

This information has been extracted and re-typed from the public record located at the Austin County Court House and as a courtesy of the Austin County Clerk's Office and the Austin County Historical Commission. Special thanks go to Joy Neely . This index shows Austin County citizenship records from early years (1849 - 1906) and some records as late as 1938. The alternative spellings shown in the index are from those records. Remember to scrol for alternate spellings of your ancestor's name, whether or not the Index provides other spellings.

This information was carefully copied from the INDEX in the Austin County Clerk's Office. It shows the type of additional information available at the Austin County Courthouse. The actual records are stored in various places If you want copies of the actual records, please write or visit; the Bellville County Courthouse in Bellville, Texas. (1 E. Main, Bellville, Texas, 77418) First, the location of that record will be determined from the actual Index, (i.e. County or District Court) then you will be directed to the appropriate location for the record to be copied.

If you have family information that you would like to share please send it to us. We will post it to this website and make it available for other researchers. You can contact us for Naturalization donations.
