Hi
The NSW bdm's are online
http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/familyHistory/search.htm
There does not appear to be a death registration for Pryse with parents Donald and Christina - even a search for just Pryse as a first name alone brings a zero result.
No marriage either. Found :D
Here is a link to the Casino Cemetery but it doesn't have any online data only an address.
http://www.ozgenonline.com/aust_cemeteries/nsw/richmond_valley/casino.htm
Here is a link to an index that includes a burial database for Casino Cemetery
http://www.richhistory.org.au/indexes.htm
I am not sure if all the Casino burials are on the database - may be a good idea to follow up with an enquiry to the address on the ozgenonline site
What supporting evidence do you have that Pryse's died in Casino, NSW - just curious :)
Cheers

Hi According to Scotlandspeople a Pryse MacKillican died 10.12.1907 at Glenlyon, Nairn, Scotland, aged 78. He was a farmer, single. Parents recorded as John MacKillican, farmer (deceased) and Margaret Clark (deceased). He died from pneumonia (influenzial). Informant was James Lamb, Law Agent, National Bank Buildings, Nairn. Age at death is slightly out, but may have been guesswork on the part of the informant. Do you think this might be your man? He is certainly not in the NSW death records.
