My understanding of the 1912 problem is that it only applies (and only in some consulates) to naturalizations before that date, the theory being that Italy, at that time, considered the naturalization to apply to all minor children, not only those born in Italy. If your GGGF never naturalized, his children would retain Italian citizenship.
Mule' is correct in that naturalization before 1912 may present a problem at some consulates.
Has anyone had a consulate bypass 1912 law?
