    3. I was unsure of that also. My son had expressed an interest in obtaining Irish citizenship, so I asked at the Irish consulate if he could claim such by being the child of a parent that obtained citizenship via Foreign Birth Registration ... namely, me. I was informed that that can only work if the child's birth came *after* the FBR of the parent. He then jokingly suggested that I disown him, then adopt him ... but it seems that the short answer is that it (in most cases) cannot be done through a great grandparent.

    3. I realize this is off topic, but for this reason (needing to be in the FBR prior to the birth of children to allow those to claim citizenship) is why I have now gotten both my 14 and 9 year old registered as Irish citizens. ----------------------------------------------------------------- [email protected] http://www.mcging.org http://www.cafepress.com/mcging http://www.tetrasomy18p.com > -----Original Message----- > From: John R Stanton [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Sunday, July 15, 2001 8:35 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [MAYO] dual citizenship > > > I was unsure of that also.
