South Murchison

The existing page Electoral district of South Murchison and the masterlist User:Orderinchaos/Electorates has South Murchison being abolished prior to 1901. Should Rason's district be something else? Digestible ( talk) 10:33, 18 March 2009 (UTC) reply

Nah it's fine - 1899 was the act which abolished it, which took effect at the 1901 election. Orderinchaos 11:15, 18 March 2009 (UTC) reply
Perhaps I should have said in 1901. This is the parliament following the 1901 election. According to the Cornthwaite Rason page, he held the seat of Guildford at this time. Digestible ( talk) 12:04, 18 March 2009 (UTC) reply
Oops - my bad. Copypasta to blame again :) Checked Black & Bolton and it says 1901-1906 guildford. Orderinchaos 15:44, 18 March 2009 (UTC) reply

Why did Doherty only serve until 1903? Digestible ( talk) 16:48, 22 March 2009 (UTC) reply

Black & Bolton p 65 just says "- Aug 1903 (resigned)". text suggests he returned to England. 26 Aug 03 by-election was won by John Ferguson by 6 votes against Labor's James Ives. (Black & Prescott p105) Ferguson was defeated by Bolton in 1904. Thanks for pointing this out - seems we were missing an MP! Orderinchaos 02:55, 23 March 2009 (UTC) reply
