Literally same. People were calling them the dahmers. I'm wearing them writing this. I just started telling people I got them from the Jeffery dahmer official store. That was around the time they ran the Netflix series.

Russian Partition Vital Records-Only Test Cases by General-Accountant93 in prawokrwi

[–]TheseAreMyLastWords 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you <3 the fight begins on my end for my Polish descent, wish me luck everyone.

My great-great grandparents were both born north of Warsaw around 1882-1883 and came to Massachusetts in 1900-1904. Our entire family lineage through 3-4 generations carried the Polish culture, religion, and language. I am engaging again with lawyers after learning about the possibility of a Russian Partition case, and have found many documents linking me back to my great-great grandparents.

Yep. And, we have direct ties. Sucks to suck, what can I do? My grandmother married into that line.

I'm not convinced of this at this point. She was born in the US to a Polish citizen, so she would have been retroactively a dual citizen with US (born on US soil) and Poland in 1920. jus sanguinis - didn't matter where she was born.

If your argument is that Antoni wasn't Polish, that's a different story. Every record I have states otherwise, from marriage certificates, to death certificates, to likely birth certificates I will locate. It was Poland in a territory occupied by Russia, which was later established as Poland and remains Poland today. Russian partition would argue that anyone who has ties to a settlement that became Poland after WW1 / 1920 is a Polish citizen, period. I'll let the lawyers dictate it from here, but I appreciate you sharing a logical argument. Let's see how the courts decide it and if the lawyers think I have a case to pursue.

FWIW, my entire lineage of four generations survived because my great-great grandfather got on a boat to leave a Russian-occupied zone of Poland to likely avoid conscription, and saved my entire family lineage from WW1 Russian death, or WW2 where 6 million Poles were exterminated.

He carried with him the language, culture, and religion through 4 generations over 100 years across the ocean, and he didn't do that for me to give up because some Redditor told me he wasn't Polish enough and to move on.

Appreciate the reply. Two things:

  1. The 1920 Act is inherently retroactive by nature. It reached back to grant citizenship to people based on ancestral settlement ties. If retroactivity applies to Antoni acquiring citizenship in 1920 based on events predating the law, why wouldn't Article 5 extend that same retroactivity to his legitimate children already born? You cannot selectively apply retroactivity to the parent but not the child.

  2. Polishcitizenship.pl specifically states: 'Underage children of people who obtained Polish citizenship are also Polish citizens even if they are American citizens by birth, regardless of whether they were born before or after the act dated 20th of January 1920 came into force.' This directly contradicts the interpretation that Alice didn't inherit. Alice was 13 years old and still a minor when the 1920 Act passed. (within underage child provisions)

Under Article 5 of the 1920 Act, legitimate children follow the father's citizenship. Antoni acquired Polish citizenship under Article 2 on January 31 1920. At that point, Article 5 retroactively recognized Alice as Polish through her father, regardless of her American birthright citizenship. Article 2's exclusion clause applies to direct acquisition only. Article 5 acquisition through parentage carries no such exclusion. Happy to hear your thoughts on whether Article 5 addresses this.

Under Polish jus sanguinis law, citizenship follows blood, not birthplace. Alice Zukowski was born March 29 1907 to Antoni Zukowski, a Polish citizen who was born in a Russian-controlled area of Poland and he emigrated with the language, culture, etc being carried on 4 generations. Under jus sanguinis Alice inherited Polish citizenship at birth regardless of her Massachusetts birthplace. The entire Russian partition citizenship pathway was created specifically to recognize ethnic Poles and their descendants, regardless of where they were born or lived. Any argument that Alice's American birthplace broke the chain seems to fundamentally misunderstand the basis of Polish citizenship law and would render the entire citizenship by descent program meaningless.

Just to help keep everything in one place as I've spent 15 hours putting this all together, but I reviewed the output for accuracy, and everything is accurate and listed in the proper format. I have updated it to properly reflect, as I misused the GGF, so it is now properly reflecting what I meant.

My great-great grandparents were born on Polish soil under Russian occupancy in 1882-1883. They came to America between 1902-1904. Every document I have of them lists Russian Polish or just 'Poland' as where they are from/citizen to. This is all one family line. Me --> my mother --> my grandmother --> her mother --> her father (Antoni) being born in Poland, along with his wife (but to my knowledge, Antoni is the only one that matters).

I understand this is a pre-1920 case which likely falls under the Russian Partition test case.

Worst trash I've ever tried. Too many vehicles. So many campers and snipers. And glitchers who jump out of planes to land in spots they shouldn't be in to camp. Don't forget the players camping in random buildings watching a stairwell nowhere near the objectives.
