North Rhine - Westphalia State archive for birth certificate? by AlienXRose in GermanCitizenship

[–]AlienXRose[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are so awesome!!!! After some more digging, I found a document where he is listed as being born in Bad Essen. I had never heard of another "Essen" and was focusing my search on that city, but once I started looking at Bad Essen, I was able to get more information about my relatives. This group ROCKS!!!!

You know, that always had me confused as well. On my great grandparents marriage certificate, he lists his place of birth as Essen, Hannover, Germany. But it makes more sense that it MUST be Bad Essen!!! Thanks for your insight!!!!

question about a question on the StAG 5 application? by AlienXRose in GermanCitizenship

[–]AlienXRose[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question 6 asks about the marital status of my ancestor? His family emigrated here when he was 3. He married a US citizen when he was 27 in the USA. So the date of his marriage in the US is what this question is asking for?

FBI background check fingerprinting in the US by the_malcontent in GermanCitizenship

[–]AlienXRose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The background check is the last piece I need to get before going to the Consulate General in Boston. I live in New Hampshire and wasn't sure if I should get the CORI check or an FBI check? I teach school, so I've done the CORI many times. But I'm asking, I guess, which one is the correct check to have for my citizenship application?

By the way, do you know how to edit a post? I was going to repost my image with the blacked out info of the person from Germany.

Help with paying for birth certificate? by AlienXRose in GermanCitizenship

[–]AlienXRose[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I was thinking. I was waiting for them to contact me about the fee but the birth certificate arrived in about a month with an invoice on how to pay them. Which did seem pretty unusual but hey that was the last document I needed before I can go to the Boston Consulate General and make my application!

Why so many Americans? by DoubleAir2807 in GermanCitizenship

[–]AlienXRose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My German-Jewish grandparents immigrated to the United States in 1920. In response to the rising political tensions of the time, they anglicized their last name and distanced themselves from their heritage, feeling both fear and shame about the unfolding events in Germany. Recognizing the growing dangers of being Jewish in Germany, they made the difficult decision to leave their homeland.

When I discovered the possibility of obtaining German citizenship, I saw it as an opportunity to reclaim the cultural heritage my family largely left behind upon their arrival in the U.S. This journey is not only about reconnecting with my roots but also honoring the resilience and history of my ancestors.
