Natrona County Passport Applications





















































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































Names that did not appear in Register or in Since Second Edition are shown in Blue. I searched all of Wyoming. A few of these are outside the usual Casper-Rawlins-Glenrock axis.

These records are from a database entitled US Passport Applications, 1795 to 1925. They can be seen at fee-based ancestry.com, but many libraries have subscriptions.

Some applied away from their homes, probably while visiting on their way to the port. Passports were granted quickly, some within days. (Rubber stamped with 'Issued' and a date). Some may not have been issued.
