In 1848 he petitioned for US Citizenship from the Court of Common Pleas of Northampton County, Pennsylvania on November 3. Two individuals who were already citizens of the US gave proof that Michael had resided within the United States of America for "one year last past within the State of Pennsylvania upwards of five years immediately preceding his application..."
Their names were Charles Smith and William Mulvaney. Both possible relations through marriage.
Citizenship was granted to Michael Sullivan on August 20, 1851 in Easton Court, Northampton County, Pennsylvania.
