Senate Res. 511. A natural born citizen is born in the country of parents who are its citizens. This would be a nice quote, but it doesn't appear to be accurate, at least when I scanned its text. (Link to Sen Res 511 here)

Maybe the two of you can help me. Just what law of the first Congress is being discussed here...
From the text of
S. RES. 511...
Whereas such limitations would be inconsistent with the purpose and intent of the `natural born Citizen' clause of the Constitution of the United States, as evidenced by the First Congress's own statute defining the term `natural born Citizen';I'd like to know which law they're talking about and get the text of the law.
I've looked at the
Statutes at Large, 1789-1875 and don't find any laws that seem to cover this issue. Perhaps ya'll will help me out here and have better luck.
