Hunt to Hoppner, 21 July 1915 - was husband naturalised?
Reply from Constable C W Whitley is also a Police Report, 17 August 1915: spoken to husband's children and 'they are certain' he was naturalised in Victoria 'many years ago'. 'The delay in answering was due to may absence for a few months.'
Hunt to Whitley, 20 August 1915: what nationality was husband? how old if alive today?
Whitley to Hunt, 4 Sept 1915: German and 93 years old if living
F J Quinn, Acting Sect, to Whitley, 9 Sept. 1915: Christopher Hoppner, farmer, naturalised in Victoria in 1896 and was licensed victualler, and was born in Hanover. 'no necessity for her to be naturalized'
