This is my understanding. I could be wrong, or the source from which I derived this understanding might have been wrong.

The founders relied on Emmerich de Vattel's text for the mesning (sic).

That the founders who wrote the amendments relied on Vattel's text is implied, but not documented anywhere explicitly. Implied because they all were known to have a copy, and I think I read somewhere that there is written evidence that they made reference to his writings, although not explicit his writings on the issue of Natural Born.

1. Benjamin Franklin: He corresponded with Vattel and praised his work. In a letter dated December 9, 1775, Franklin wrote to Charles-Guillaume-Frédéric Dumas, mentioning that he had received three copies of Vattel’s "The Law of Nations" and that the book was continuously in demand by members of Congress.
1. Citations by the Founders: Several Founding Fathers were influenced by Vattel’s ideas. For example, John Jay, in a letter to George Washington dated July 25, 1787, suggested that the Constitution should require the president to be a "natural born citizen" to ensure allegiance to the country, reflecting an understanding influenced by Vattel.
1. Early Legal References: Early American legal scholars and judges referenced Vattel's work when interpreting constitutional provisions. Vattel’s definition of natural-born citizens as those born in the country to citizen parents was cited in early American legal texts and decisions, indicating its influence on American legal thought.
