Verity Mary Barton (born 6 August 1985) is an Australian politician who is the LNP member of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland for Broadwater, having defeated Peta-Kaye Croft at the 2012 state election. Mary Barton (obstetrician)
Mary Barton founded a fertility clinic in Portland Place, London and later in Wimpole Street London with her husband Bertold Wiesner in the late 1930s and it did not close until 1967.
 It is assumed that all records were destroyed when the practice closed.
 The clinic pioneered artificial insemination using donor sperm for women whose husbands may have been infertile.
 The clinic helped women conceive 1,500 babies, nicknamed the 'Barton Brood', although the exact records appear to have been destroyed in 1963 owing to the social taboos and lack of regulation surrounding the subject. Syrian nationality law
Syrian nationality law is the law governing the acquisition, transmission and loss of Syrian citizenship.
 Syrian citizenship is the status of being a citizen of the Republic of Syria and it can be obtained by birth or naturalisation.
 The Syrian nationality is transmitted by paternity (father) (see Jus sanguinis).
 Therefore, Syrian nationality is determined solely by the father's nationality, while the place of birth is irrelevant.
 In other words, birthright citizenship is not recognized since being born in Syria does not grant an automatic right to become a national.
 In most cases, individuals are deemed to be Syrian nationals regardless of whether they are born inside or outside Syria as long as their father holds Syrian nationality. Mary Barton
