Dear Leslie
Thank you for your reply
There is indeed
Sorry it’s so small. It’s a screen shot. I’m sure you can zoom..

I hope you can open it. I’m corresponding from Denmark Europe. I don’t know whether that makes a difference? I do have yet another query about my Mother’s naturalisation which I am almost certain she was granted post marriage to my Australian born step father. I would really like to know whether I ,as a 14 yr old was included in her Naturalisation. I can’t include this screen shot from 1970 which states her marriage surname and the document is " not yet examined". I’ll try to write another post.
Thank you very much.

Please tell me if the screen shot didn’t work. I couldn’t reply to the email. Perhaps bc I am in Europe?

Hi Leslie thank you kindly. I don’t believe I could have found that document myself.
My next query

About my Mother’s naturalisation which I am almost certain she was granted post marriage to my Australian born step father. I would really like to know whether I ,as a 13 yr old was included in her Naturalisation? I can include this screen shot from 1970 which states her marriage surname and the document is " not yet examined". Ergo no access , right? Any idea when it could be accessible?
