NSW BMDs show only one marriage for a John RIACH - and it fits with the electoral roll information from Kris

1934  RIACH  John =   ROBERTSON  Elizabeth H; reg at  DRUMMOYNE 15977/1934

No death to 1978on NSW BMDS;

Ryerson index has a death notice for:
RIACH Elizabeth died 03SEP2007;  Death notice in Daily Telegraph (Sydney) 08SEP2007 

Ryerson offer a look-up service.
