[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My maternal grandparents emigrated from Scotland. My grandmother remained a GB / UK citizen. She has passed on. Would that help me in seeking UK citizenship? [/quote] I don't think so. I don't think the UK has the same generous citizenship rule that Ireland has.[/quote] Curious — when did grandma immigrate to the US and when did UK recognize women’s citizenry independent of their father/husband? Timing matters as far as the laws go. For instance because two great-grandmother never became US citizens (their husbands did) and Poland established citizenship only for those basically living within its borders during WWI, they became stateless. They also became permanent (non-citizen) US residents (ie, permanent resident aliens).[/quote]
