Albert's birthdate comes from my mother's family Bible. His age is verified by the marriage extract from the 1875 census on Fulton County Genweb which gives his age at marriage as 21, so he was born in 1854 or 1855. I have an old newspaper clipping from my great-grandmother (source unknown) which states his anniversary was the same date as his birthday. The 1880 census gives his birthdate as 1855 in England.
My mother told me he was born in Yeoville and visited back there a few times, which visits I have confirmed from shipping records online - at least that he sailed to England.
His date of arrival came from http://www.castlegarden.org/quick_search_result.php?p_first_name=Albert&p_last_name=Slade&m_arrival_date_start=1820&m_arrival_end=1913&submit.x=37&submit.y=16http://www.castlegarden.org/quick_search_result.php?p_first_name=Albert&p_last_name=Slade&m_arrival_date_start=1820&m_arrival_end=1913&submit.x=37&submit.y=16
His date of Naturalization came from a book I glanced through in the Fulton County Records Room (as I remember) "Naturalization Oaths 1876 - 1885"
