Since you are familiar with the information and where it might be found, can you cite the specifics if that law? I've been hunting the specific reference for a while now with no luck.

Pretty sure it doesn't exist. The argument for that interpretation doesn't rely on US law, but on what the Founding Fathers understood to be Blackstone's understanding of the British concept of "natural born subject."

"Pretty sure it doesn't exist."

Me, too. It is one of those apocryphal references that keep getting cited on this topic.
