On today's episode we discuss the history of citizenship in the United States, our own citizenship histories and an overview of the process for each Latin American country's citizenship requirements. We were thrilled to discuss the Sephardic Jewish ancestry citizenship process for Spain and Portrugal with panelist Sarah Leiter, a PhD candidate at the University of New Mexico. We are lucky to also be joined again by Debbie Gutler, Assistant Director of the FamilySearch Library, who has extensive experience in Latin American geneaology.
