At the time of the founders a wife automatically had the same citizenship as her husband so there would not have been an issue.

ThankQ. Wondered about that. Many during the revolution were likely not born here.

** Many during the revolution were likely not born here. **

and that is built into the Constitution.

What I do wonder is, what\who was considered a citizen of the United States at the time of adoption of the constitution
as the Constitution doesn't identify eligibility for either kind of citizenship.

No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution
