Notes
- ^ Boyd's party affiliation is taken from reports in the Sydney Morning Herald,[10] the Daily Telegraph,[11][12] and the National Advocate,[13] which record Boyd as campaigning as a Free Trader, while Antony Green lists him as an independent stating that his party affiliation was unclear from the reports Green had examined.[9]
