would a researcher be able to access the real/actual document at the Brit Library?

Anything held by the British Library will be a transcript, not the real/actual document. Just email the Asia Pacific and Africa Collections team (APAC) at the BL, give them all the details of what you're looking for, and ask for advice. They will reply within 5 working days and are very helpful.

Generally a child takes his father’s nationality. Have you investigated the possibility that he was registered at birth as Turkish? You say his father didn’t become naturalised British until 1969 when the person concerned was already an adult of 26. It’s a complicated subject and regulations and  conditions vary and have changed over time.

It’s on the right hand side of your post, next to ‘QUOTE’ only it’s called ‘MODIFY’ not edit.
