Further comments

Letters attached state that she doesn't need a certificate of naturalisation because her husband has been naturalised (and she sends proof of this), although she may need a certificate if she ever leaves Australia, and her application would be received favourable.

Her ship, the Barque Sophie was built at Reiherstieg in 1850, by H.C. Goddefroy & Sons of Hamburg.
