I wonder if a qualify for ancestry citizenship instead of naturalisation

hey reddit! recently seen all the posts about people looking through their family tree and getting passports so wondered if I stood a chance

I've been living in Germany a while and will go down the naturalisation route if this doesn't work out, currently finishing my B1 exams.

anyway my mum is coming to Germany next week and has the following documents

- German grandma had my mum in 1952 out of wedlock to an english man, I have my mum's birth certificate to prove this and my grandma's later marriage certificate

- my mum had a child German passport and lived in bavaria until the age of 6, she got the UK passport aged 18

- mum was adopted by English parent later on

- grandma's old German passport

would this be enough to claim the ancestry route?
