In the US, nearly everyone is from someplace else, so we often give a nod to our ancestral heritage. Although i'm sure many Americans would be shocked if they went to their ancestral places only to be find themselves referred to as Americans and any ancestral connection ignored.megan blogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04555646904983619596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-2232283638987049742013-11-19T19:34:33.871+00:002013-11-19T19:34:33.871+00:00Hi Cro, I have three nieces born in Mullim as they...Hi Cro, I have three nieces born in Mullim as they call it a wonderful place to be born and they live in an idyllic part of OZ..maybe Lady M will be winging it over here and how wonderful that your daughter is over here too and although a fair way from one another there is support at hand.Congratualions.carole johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05721058683205450682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-75504078577790485682013-11-19T17:31:31.784+00:002013-11-19T17:31:31.784+00:00Hey Cro.

When I went to register his birth at the British Consulate and obtain a UK Birth Certificate, I was told he wasn't entitled as he was now the second generation born outside UK territory. Fortunately, I had a few contacts. Dominic is now the proud possessor of only the fourth birth certificate ever to be issued by the British Embassy in Angola. Every time I read it, I am delighted. It says:<br /><br />Register of Birth within the Consular District of Luanda. Place of birth: Cape Town.<br /><br />He got his British Passport.Hippohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09468795398813061897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-73163789478033519712013-11-19T14:58:23.436+00:002013-11-19T14:58:23.436+00:00Wonderful.
