Also - are / were your parents Spanish natives, or were you born in Spain to American Citizens (EG in the forces) ?

Without knowing your exact personal circumstances, in sounds like you may have renounced Spanish citizenship in order to obain US Citizenship, however there is a process to retun to Spanish Citizenship aswell.

Surely your parents can remember the steps they took in obtaining US Citizanship ? Did they or did they not renounce their Spanish Citizenship ?
