This is odd, unless they moved in 1963, they are both in Orange and this..

Henry Walter Dransfield
Electoral Year: 1963
State: New South Wales
District: Kingsford-Smith
Subdistrict: Pittwater
[6 Bellevue Ave., Avavlon. Still with Eileen Lavinia]

That's another of those silly errors Geoff.

Pittwater (Avalon) is north of the harbour and Kingsford-Smith (airport) is south.

Not the right Division for that Sub-division. Mackellar - Pittwater

I can't find a death for Reginald to see if he is a brother. I can't find a birth in NSW either.

The death occurred suddenly yesterday at the Canberra Hospital of the Rev. R. B. Dransfield, assistant to Archdeacon Robertson, at St. John's Church for the past six months.

The late Mr. Dransfield, who was taken ill late on Sunday night, was formerly rector at Bungendore. He was one of the first to enlist for chaplain duty from the Diocese of Goulburn during the war. He served in the Middle East and was at Tobruk. On his discharge from the army he was attached to the Department of Post-War Reconstruction for a period of 12 months, after which he became associated with St. John's Church.

He leaves a widow and six children.
