It would not surprise me that he could have went to Providence, It is not that far away. The records for Massachusetts naturalizations prior to post WW II are in the Massachusetts Archives in Boston (near JFK Libaray). Tauton District Court was the county court house where I would think the naturalization would most likely have taken place.

It also falls in line with with a passenger list record him, his wife and my great grandmother, for them returning from the Azores May 17th, 1902, on the ship Peninsular for a trip he mentions in the news paper article as well. Everything I have though says he lived in and around the New Bedford, Dartmouth, and Fairhaven area, but the Naturalization shows him becoming a citizen in Providence, RI. My question is, since I can't find any record of his naturalization in Mass, for that time, would he have to take a trip to Providence for naturalization in 1901?
