Selina born in Syria moved with her parents to Australia and spent all her childhood but for a few months living there - vague on travel details as a result.
She is married to Michael Jabreen who runs a Drapery Store. He is a naturalised British citizen (1903 in Townsville, Queensland). All this is explained in a long letter from her.
There is a letter attached to say that she is a naturalised subject because of her husband's status.
