    MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY OF NEW SOUTH WALES 1856-1901 MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY OF NEW SOUTH WALES 1856-1901 Biographical Notes A. W. Martin and P. Wardle PLSATH RETURN TO:- EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UHU'EBSITY CANBERRA THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY 1959 Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, for transmission through the mail as a book. THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL UNIVERSITY SOCIAL SCIENCE MONOGRAPH 16 FOREWORD THE BASIC MATERIAL for this study was collected by Dr A. W. Martin while working on his thesis ‘Political Groupings in New South Wales, 187 2 1889 at this University and was later extended with the help of Dr Jean I. Martin to cover the whole period from the beginning of responsible government to federa­ tion. An analysis based on this material was published by Dr Martin in the Australian Journal of Politics and History, vol. II, pt. i (November 1956). Dr Martin s notes were then checked and added to by Mrs P. Wardle, Research Assistant in the Department of History, who in particular, examined the obituary notices in almost all cases, references to these having been supplied by courtesy of the Clerk of Parliaments of New South Wales- Mrs Wardle was also responsible for reducing the entries to a standard form. The whole work has been carried out under my direction as part of a wider project for the collection and recording of Australian biographical material by the Department of History. The entries have been arranged, so far as the material avail­ able allows, in a uniform pattern. After the name, constitu encies and dates of election within the period 1856 1900* comes the personal identification - occupation when first elected (necessarily a somewhat arbitrary classification), place and date of birth, parentage marriage,and place and date of death, the latter being given in full to facilitate further search for obituaries.
