D.C.N.A. Please see list of Confirmation candidates at page 98 submitted by Sister Eileen. The following have been Baptised at the Moore River Native Settlement and I presume, therefore, that there is no objection to their Confirmation. Hester Corbett Delia Dann Doris Oakley Betty Robinson Lily Burgess (10) Joyce Parfitt Eric Lawford (Baptised Harry Eric Lawford) Lawrence Ogilvie Don Todd Ernest Roberts (11) Shirley Nannup. Three-quarters native blood, aged 15 years. Shirley is a daughter of Lila Nannup, nee Kearing, deceased, and Teddy Nannup, who is exempt- ed from the Act and is at present overseas with the A.I.F. Shirley belongs to the Anglican Faith. Do you approve her Confirmation, please? (12) Marina (or Maria) Hart: 9/16ths native blood, aged 12 years. Daughter of Frank Hart, deceased, and Mrs. Tottie Hart, who is at M.R.N.S. Maria's sisters have all been Confirmed in the Anglican Faith. If Mrs. Hart is agreeable, do you approve of Maria's Confirmation, please? (13) Henry Riley: Half-caste, aged 11 years. Mother, Mrs. Norman Michael (nee Molly Munya); Father, George Marsh, half-caste. Prior to her marriage to Michael, Molly signed a statement in 1939 to the effect that she agreed that her children should be brought up in the Anglican Faith. This Confirmation is, therefore, in order, but Sister Eileen's attention should be drawn to the fact that Henry's correct surname is Munya. He was given this name some years ago by Mr. Neville and his mother was Baptised as Molly Munya. (14) Leslie Hannah: ⅜ths native blood, aged 16 years. Leslie is an illegitimate child of Lottie Hannah, an inmate of M.R.N.S. If Lottie is agreeable, there ap- pears to be no reason to object in this case. Do you agree, please? (15) Betty Mogridge: ¾ths native blood, aged 12 years. (16) Reynold Mogridge: ¾ths native blood, aged 14 years. Mother, Rachel Mogridge (nee Barron) half-caste. Father, Lawrence Mogridge, full-blood. The parents were married at the M.R.N.S. according to the rites of the Church of England. Mrs Mogridge is now at the Settlement and if she is agreeable do you approve, please? (Signed) ??? 19th November, 1942. AB/F. Miss Bishop. 10 & 11 approved & handle the others as you have suggested. 21.11.42
