Notes: Second member added for this election. The SMH reported that John K Doyle had nominated, but he then did not feature in the reported results, so not sure what happened. Clearly more research is needed.
Source: Report of nominations, SMH 8 December 1882, p.5 col.2. Incomplete results used, published SMH 20 December. p.5 col.1. Same totals published in the Daily Telegraph, but the totals look suspiciously incomplete.
Corrections: Statistical register reports 1309 person voting, but in a two member district, this must be the number of votes.
