If you mean first male United States citizen to be canonized, that would be Saint John Nepomucene Neumann who was canonized on June 19, 1977, by Pope Paul VI. However, he was originally from Germany.

St. Martin de Porres was born and died in Lima, Peru, and he was canonized on May 6, 1962 by Pope John XXIII. That would make him the first native born male saint canonized in the Americas, I believe.
