    1. Re: [NY-IRISH] 1907 ACT vs Women's US Citizenship

    3. I've been wondering about this recently. Did it only apply to women who were US citizens, or would, say, a woman with Brazilian citizenship who married a man with Italian citizenship in NY also have acquired her husband's nationality? (I have a great-grandmother whose nationality is not what I'd expect it to be on her naturalization paperwork, and I'm wondering if it changed when she married, even though neither was a US citizen when they married.)
