Supporting your right to citizenship, inheritance, and more
To establish your eligibility for citizenship in another country such as Italy or Spain you will need to establish that you are descended from one or even several your ancestors who likely passed away many years ago. It is also likely that your ancestors name(s) are incorrectly reflected on public documents. This is quite common due to the anglicization of immigrant’s names, particularly in the first half of the 20th century.
While some states have what is called a “One and the Same Affidavit” Connecticut has no such provision. At the Law Offices of Charles L.
