《Comments》

The most plausible model for this section would be:

• German Civil Code (1896), Sec.10:
  • [I] A wife takes the domicile of her husband. If the husband establishes a domicile in a place in a foreign country to which the wife does not follow and is not bound to follow him, the wife does not take his domicile.
  • [II] So long as the husband has no domicile or the wife does not take his domicile, the wife may have a separate domicile.

The other miscellaneous source is as follows:

• Swiss Civil Code (1907), Art.25:
  • The residence of the husband is the residence of the wife; the residence of the father and mother that of the children under their power; the seat of the Guardians' Court that of the wards. If the husband's residence is not known, or the wife legally separated, then she can have an independent residence.
