George Henry Johnston - Naturalization 2 Feb 1938 at Chicago - 1 of 3

"I came to the U. S. when I was 4 years of age. My father, John Johnston, came at that time and I always understood that he became a U.S. citizen before I became of age. About 1890, or before, he separated from my mother and in March 1892 he died. As I was but 15 years of age when he died I naturally did not learn anything about his citizenship from him. "About November 1937 I was notified by the Election Board in Chicago, Ill. that my qualifications as a voter were questioned. In attempting to obtain proof of citizenship I had a search instituted by the Immigration and Naturalization Service at Chicago, but no record could be found of my father's naturalization. "I have voted at Chicago since 1900. In October 1918 I was a registered voter in the 58th Precinct of the 7th Ward, City of Chicago."
