#Many poskim hold that if an invalid conversion was | #Many poskim hold that if an invalid conversion was performed, and the non-Jew married into a Jewish family and generations later it's unknown, that is a serious issue needs to be investigated and revealed.<ref>Rav Elyashiv (Kovetz Teshuvot 4:136) writes that the principle that a mamzer that got mixed into a family does not need to be revealed and is permitted when it is in later generations unknown (Kiddushin 71a) does not apply to non-Jews. Rav Chaim Kanievsky (Ktzaruf Kesef p. 11 cited by R’ Yitzchaki cited below) agreed. See [https://www.machonso.org/hamaayan/?gilayon=20&id=815 Rav Yoel Amital]’s article in Hamaayan where he argues that the Dvar Yehoshua and Chazon Ish EH 1:18 think that it is applicable to non-Jews. Also see [https://www.machonso.org/hamaayan/?gilayon=21&id=851 Rav Dovid Yitzchaki] who argues that the Chazon Ish does not mean that.</ref> | ||
