My Mother was Born in Cayman Islands aka British overseas territory.
All BOTCs except for those whose British overseas territories (BOT) citizenship derived solely from a connection with the Sovereign Base Areas in Cyprus (hereafter abbreviated to 'SBAs') became British citizens automatically on 21 May 2002. They can transmit their British citizenship to their children automatically, in the same way as they can transmit BOT citizenship (subject to certain limitations if they are born overseas).
I was born in USA.

The change of name from British Dependent Territories citizen (BOTC) to British overseas territories citizen (BOTC) happened on 26 February 2002, the day that the new law received Royal Assent. The provisions conferring British citizenship came into force on 21 May 2002.
