NARA's San Bruno facility maintains retired records from Federal agencies and courts in Northern California, Hawaii, Nevada except Clark County, the Pacific Trust Territories, and American Samoa. Their extensive microfilm holdings are of particular value for genealogy research:

• Federal population censuses for all States, 1790-1930.
• Indexes for the 1880, 1900, 1910, and 1920 censuses (indexes are not available for all census years and all states).
• Censuses listing residents of American Samoa and Native Americans in California and Nevada.
• Records documenting the removal of Cherokees and other tribes included in the "Oklahoma Removal," ca. 1900.
• Passenger arrival records for the port of San Francisco, 1893-1957.
• Indexes to naturalization records from Federal courts in Honolulu, Reno (NV), and San Francisco.
• Maritime records for San Francisco and other ports.
• Revolutionary war military service records.
• Early pension and bounty land warrant applications.
