My gr-, gr-, gr- grandmother was born in 1929 in Luxembourg and immigrated to the US in 1854. She married my 3rd gr grandfather (a German immigrant) in later that same year. She died in 1897.
In other words, my only Luxembourg ancestor died before 1900. (she came with her parents, but they also died before 1900). I am not sure if jus sanguis would pass her citizenship to her son (my 2nd great grandfather).
Any opinions? Thank you.

At first look it seems you are not eligible however maybe your ancestor might have kept his lux citizenship and passed it to your ancestor without them even knowing them.
Contact the lux citizenship people and expose your case as clearly as possible, they will be able to help you!

You should write the Ministry of justice and make sure, even before you start spending on translations and certidicates or before giving up. I think there is a possibility. |
