I have not tried this but it should work

Go to View > Master Lists > Source
Select the source you created in error.
Click the Show List button to see who uses that source
Use the tagging button to add a tag to everyone who uses the source
There is a button on that show list screen which will delete the source
and all references to it.
Create the new source using the correct template
Copy that source to the source clipboard
Tools > Advanced Tagging
Which Records to use tab
Assign to all individuals with the tag you used above
Where to assign (this may be a problem and invalidate the easy part) You
mention a naturalization record. If you used that as the source for an
event and apply the advanced tagging to events the source will be added
to ALL events for everyone with the tag. There is no way to selectively
apply the source to only a event of a certain type. If you used it for
one of the other options on that assignment screen it will apply the
source only to that data for the people in the list. (Multiple
selections are allowed).
