The inhabitants of a state are not necessarily born there.
True, they are not, but this quote from Tucker is from notes on his annotation of Blackstone's Commentaries. The original says:
OF THE PEOPLE, WHETHER ALIENS, DENIZENS, OR NATIVES
The first and most obvious division of the people is into aliens and natural-born subjects.1 Natural-born subjects are such as are born within the dominions of the crown of England; that is, within the ligeance, or, as it is generally called, the allegiance, of the king; and aliens, such as are born out of it.
Chapter X , William Blackstone, Commentaries on the Laws of England i
Other that the inhabitant remark, Tucker quotes Blackstone almost verbatim.
Whether it is allegiance to a King or Allegiance to a country, the principal is the same.
Without a pre-existing tie, there is no allegiance, and without that allegiance, one cannot be natural born.
But notice that Tucker/Nicholas doesn’t say that there is a third type - those born in the state but who are aliens.
So in the case of an alien moving into a state and have children there.
Which of the two classes of citizen would the children be considered - born in-state or born out-of-state?
