Hi,

The 1943 Electoral Roll has John Nicholas Van Buren as residing at 112 George St, Redfern as a labourer.  Can't see any other Van Buren surnames at that address.

You may already have the photos of CLEMENT graves at Sandgate, and the MI for Sarah, wife of John Van BUREN.

On the same page as the Death Notice found by Ros is a funeral notice stating that he is the brother-in-law and uncle of 'Mrs Margaret YOUNG and family'.  Funeral was at Woronora crematorium.
