Great Grandparent's Wedding 1877 | |
|
Naturalisation was an expensive process which was not necessary for normal residence in this country. The vast majority of immigrants did not naturalise at all. Sometimes a census will give the information 'naturalised British' or similar. It is not always the case that the subject actually went through the legal process of naturalisation. Men could never gain citizenship by marrying British women during the 19th century, but many of them chose to pretend they had acquired it by listing themselves as British Subjects on census forms (no verification of the information they reported was required for the census).

Barbara Lena's Marriage to Ernest Butler 1916 | |
|
Barbara Lena was a Spinster when she married Ernest Butler, this is proof that Julius Rothermel 'Watson' was an illegitimate child born in 1909
From 1875 - present a man could only be named as the father on a birth certificate if he consented and was also present when the birth was registered. Space for fathers name is usually left blank on birth certificates of illegitimates The father may agree to let the child take his name
Sometimes a mother was embarrassed about the illegitimacy so she would fabricate the name of the father and call herself Mrs. Mary Jones when in fact she was unwed.
