One tree has this birth in NSW:
17044/1876 SMITH CHARLOTTE ANNETTA - GEORGE - ELIZA - LAMBTON
Birth 11751/1866 DRINKWATER JAMES - - MARY A - NEWCASTLE
1st marriage 6606/1889 DRINKWATER JAMES - SMITH CHARLOTTE - LAMBTON
Death 13032/1934 DRINKWATER JAMES - MARY A - WALLSEND
2nd marriage 1570/1935 LYONS JOHN J - DRINKWATER CHARLOTTE ANN - MAYFIELD
Death 3902/1941 LYONS JOHN JOSEPH - PATRICK - ANNIE - MAYFIELD
Death 16404/1943 LYONS CHARLOTTE ANN - MATTHEW - BRIDGET - AUBURN
If that is the correct birth reg then both parents are wrong on the death reg.
Not in Ryerson and can't find death or funeral notices in TROVE for either.
Mayfield, Wallsend and Lambton are all in Newcastle/Hunter region and Auburn is a suburb of Sydney.
I doubt that is the correct birth with a marriage at age 13, so looking for the right one. I can't see a marriage or a death for the Charlotte born 1876. I can't see a birth in NSW for any Charlotte with parents Matthew & Bridget. Sounds Irish to me.
Births:
12051/1859 SMITH MARY - MATTHEW - BRIDGET - RAYMOND TERRACE
15819/1873 SMITH BRIDGET - MATTHEW - BRIDGET - NEWCASTLE
17390/1877 SMITH MATTHEW J - MATTHEW - BRIDGET - LAMBTON
