Birth date

This article currently says he was born in 1844. If this were true, he was first premier at age 95, and lived to 125. Also, there is nowhere in Adelaide named Tea Tree. Tea Tree Gully perhaps? --Scott Davis ^Talk 12:48, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- I think your maths needs a check there. Born in 1844 makes him 55 at the time he first went into office (1939). Also, he passed away in 1969 at the age of 85!! On your second point, Tea Tree is a locality south of Hobart, in Tasmania, which is where he was born. Why do you mention Adelaide!?! --User:Rac fleming ^Talk 09:37, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
