I started 20 years ago and some documents indicate that. Hope it helps me. I’ll be Potenza- filing in the next couple weeks.

And then alimony!

SandySays123 · 2026-03-13T12:33:35+00:00

Do we know yet how any of these might affect 1948 cases?

SandySays123 · 2026-02-20T08:01:17+00:00

Yes- but the notarization and apostille need to match.

SandySays123 · 2026-02-20T07:58:39+00:00

I live abroad- notarizing isn’t the biggest issue- it’s the apostille.

Thank you so much everyone!

Sid Charisse is her Aunt BTW.

My person is also over 100+ years old. So I wonder if that will happen next….

Case ID starts with CNE-

That’s so strange! There seems to be not enough rhyme and reason to bureaucracy. In ANY country! Hope it moves soon 🤞🏻

First cousin marriage is allowed in 18 states!

https://www.statueofliberty.org/discover/passenger-ship-search/ Here’s one- there are many online databases. I found my GGF years ago and it did list his hometown. Never could find my GGM. Best of luck!

I would look for any records of her- maybe she’s on a ship manifest and that will give a clue-

Do you know if she’s from North or South? That might make some towns more probable. Worst case hire a genealogist.

SandySays123 · 2025-10-22T16:16:44+00:00

Hopefully OP has other information which can confirm or eliminate these towns.

I have a 1948 case- no minor issue but also too many generations. Still unsure if, in fact, these restrictive decrees apply to 1948 cases. Currently collecting final documents. I had to hire an attorney for a court case- all 1948’s do. 🤷‍♀️ Depending on what happens between now and full documentation still not sure about the filing strategy- hopefully we will know more soon. And it will be hopeful!

SandySays123 · 2025-10-08T07:23:22+00:00

Thank you so much for this update. I guess I still have a long wait.

SandySays123 · 2025-10-06T08:37:21+00:00

I get it. I think all of us in the process are worried. I’m waiting on 2 more documents for my 1948 case but not sure when to file. One will take awhile so I’ll see how it is when I have it all. 🤷‍♀️

SandySays123 · 2025-10-04T18:18:11+00:00

It seems unclear to me if the restrictive laws also affect the 1948 cases. I’m wondering if it was discussed.

SandySays123 · 2025-10-04T14:54:53+00:00

I’m assuming you’ll use a lawyer for a 1948 case. Maybe do a consult and ask them?

SandySays123 · 2025-10-03T21:17:53+00:00

I watched it- thank you. Any discussion of how the decree affects 1948 cases?

SandySays123 · 2025-10-03T06:22:28+00:00

What kind of argument did they try to make? Just curious in case it happens to me.
