What's this?

Looking into getting Irish citizenship for MamaHurlz. Apparently it's


pretty easy if you have a grandparent or parent born over there. Mom looked into it years ago but never really followed up so she asked me to do it. Per the website all I need is a the original birth certificate of my mom's grandmother or grandfather (mom's mom was born here and never had any papers or anything that made her an Irish citizen) and a death certificate.

My mom thinks the death certificate should be easy to get from the State of New York. The original birth certificates might be a little tougher since no one knows where they are and I'm not sure if Ireland has records/can produce certified copies for people who were born 15 years after the American Civil War ended.

  I was able to find my grandparents' birth certificates in Northern Serbia. -- SDHokie 05/10/2019 3:02PM
  Would they give citizenship to someone born in what is now N. Ireland? -- Hokie360 05/10/2019 12:41PM
  Yup. Northern Ireland works too. -- Hurley09 05/10/2019 12:44PM
  Ancestry.com, FTW. Guaranteed to tell you EXACTLY where she was born ;-) ** -- ArdbegHokie 05/10/2019 12:31PM
  There were no birth certificates in that time period...anywhere -- MAHokie69 05/10/2019 10:49AM
  Yep. Mostly it was church records that recorded births and baptisms. -- SDHokie 05/10/2019 3:04PM
  If you can find the church they attended in Ireland they should have record ** -- UTPr0sim 05/10/2019 11:07AM
