Born in Australia, married but her husband deserted her. She writes that her father was German, but came to Australia before her birth and was naturalised, she was born in Australia, and married Paul Diezzman aged 81 years old, a German by birth who had come to Australia when he was18 yrs old. Her husband deserted her nine years ago and she was left with no income - supported herself and has now bought a house and some land, but cannot officially own it unless she is a naturalised citizen.

She writes she is an Australian, and someone has written in pencil "German".
