[quote=Anonymous]OP, near as I can tell, it all depends on whether your husband's mother naturalized as a US citizen before your father was born, or after. If she naturalized before your father was born, she was unable to pass on her German Citizenship to your father. If she naturalized after your father was born, then her German citizenship was passed on to him. However at the time, citizenship didn't pass through the female line. That only changed as per German law at some point. I'm not very familiar with the German citizenship laws as I have been immersing myself in Italian citizenship laws. However I do think if you are tracing ancestry through a female in the early or middle part of the 1900s there is a case that can be made that the mother's inability to pass her citizenship on to a child was sexist, basically. https://www.reddit.com/r/germany/wiki/citizenship/#wiki_outcome_3[/quote]
