I had not realized that Germany changed its laws regarding dual citizenup, being that my cousins who still live in Ecuador and whose father was born in Germany both have dual German and Ecuadoran citizenship.
My sister and I, however, born in the United States do not have dual American and Ecudaorian citizenship. We also do not have our mother's maiden name tacked onto the end of our first, middle and last name as do my cousins.
My grandmother on my dad's side is full German, 2nd generation I believe. She passed away at the age of 95 in November of 2008.
My last name again from my dad's side of the family is French, but somewhere along the way I've got some dollop of English, French and Irish.
Thanks for the thread/topic.l; and good luck, Karrenia
