Nation of Citizenship for Canadians
Question: What do we do with the information given for "Nearest Relative?"

Question: If they declare a country of citizinship or subject, is this supposed to be entered in the country of birth?

Question, under Nation of Citizenship I have the following: Canada; Canada, Great Britain; Canada (Great Britain); Great Britain; and England. Do I type in what I see there or is one form preferable? Please type what is on the document.

Citizenship for those listed as "declarant"? The record indicates the person has declared their citizenship intentions, and nothing is written in the space after "If not a citizen, of what country are you a citizen or subject?" Should this be indexed as United States citizenship or left blank? The US citizenship is not yet established, technically. It is my tendency to leave this blank, since no other country is given. Please provide guidance.

I would also like to know what to do about "declarant".

As of 5 August2012, no guidance has been provided on the declarant. Please answer it as I have the same questions on the declarant's birth country. Thank you.

Question on Naturalized
On many batches Naturalized is checked, and there is nothing at all to put in the last 4 columns. I guess I will just leave them empty and see what arbatration thinks about it.... any ideas or advice??

Thanks

Indexing "Township"

For the Birth Town or County field, if a township is recorded, for example Abbott Township, do we index the word Township?
