Thanks for clarifying the "na" mgnv - I learn something new on here every day!

Before I guessed NA stood for Not Applicable I went through all the states to see if NA was an abbreviation. Doh!

Margee - No.
Na means naturalized, and Al means alien - normally only entered for foreign born folk
Incidentally, d.o.immig=1901

The column headings aren't overly informative - check out:

One should magnify the image 4 clicks before saving, if that's what you're going to do - you'll get a download with better resolution that way.

In 1920/10, he was an alien

In the column on the 1930 census for naturalisation "na" is written on the line for William.

I'm guessing that means "not applicable" so perhaps he never became a US citizen.

If I recall correctly then the year and abbreviation for the state where it took place would be in that column.
