OK, I've found the book but there are 1082 pages and it is not indexed and isn't searchable so I can't go through all those pages.

There is an index of memos about naturalisations but they are listed in alphabetical order of the recipient not the alien.

They are not in chronological order either.

HO 5/113: 1916 Oct 07 - 1916 Dec 23 (Out Letter Books. Vol. 70)

I've looked through the above for letters 16 Oct 1916 - many are faded (they are the carbon copies and the print had worn off!) and couldn't spot your Nan's name.

The letters are primarily of the same format telling people what documents to take to an interview

Sorry - we can't seem to find it. Do a straight copy and paste of everything associated with the entry and we can have another go.

We've been looking on Ancestry - it was that site, wasn't it?

As for where Giovanni came from. Make contact with an Anglo-Italian FH group - they may be able to give pointers.

Sandra,
Do you hold a document dated 13 Oct 1916?
The UK Aliens Entry Books are not searchable by name on Ancestry.... only by date.
How did you come by this info?

There is no one called Ellen Chiapporo or anyone resembling her on the books for 13 Oct 1916.

HO 5/113: 1916 Oct 07 - 1916 Dec 23 (Out Letter Books. Vol. 70)
13 Oct 1916 is found on pages 62-77 of 1012

There is an alphabetical index on the last few pages, listing every letter that was sent. There is no one called Chiappori in this book.

i have a certificate with my nans photo on it and signed by the surrey police that she is a registered alien, for all of you that have helped i found out yesterday that my grandad giovanni was locked up at the start of world war 1 for being a suspected enemy alien and that is why my nan was registered also.
