Translation Request

Hi, I noticed my distant relative had a separate page inserted to his baptism record. Can you tell me what it says? I very rarely see these in my research.

Hi,

The document says that Alexander Franz Matuszewski is now (starting in September 1907) allowed to use the family name "Meinert".

I hope this helps. The text has a lot of legal language in it which I am not able to translate.
