German, divorced German husband in Germany; App states ‘divorced from my husband’ and has one daughter in Germany.
However, critical police report, p.3-4, 18 September 1914, reveals: She has lived in Australia under two names. Says married again to a German but he has since deserted her (his name, which she sometimes uses, is Osburg). Applying under the first married name, as she has a daughter in Germany under that name, but won’t bother if has to do it under second married name, as plans to 'proceed to London about the end of the present year'
‘The Senior Sergeant told her she should have applied for Naturalization in her proper name seeing she had married Osburg after her divorce from Humberg in Germany… The Senior Sergeant is of opinion little reliance can be placed in the Applicants statements as she tried to mislead him in her statements regarding her residence in New South Wales. The Police of this Division know nothing of this womans character, she occupied a small house in Foley Street and let off a room to men lodgers.’ James Norton, Senior Sergeant, 16/9/14, Darlinghurst No 3 Police Station
