As I suggested above, there is no need to pay that amount of money for a NSW certificate.

Order from a transcription agent.  There are 3 I know of all of whom are reliable.
Here is the link to one.

https://nswtranscriptions.com.au/pages/our_services/bdm/nsw_bdm.php

The cost will be $20 or less. There will be a short wait.

It is disappointing that the informant on Lila's certificate was not a relation or a close associate.
However, the list may clarify the issue of the 3 men of similar name.

Adding
It would be helpful for those trying to assist you if you would transcribe word for word from the DC of LILA. Entirely.

OR even more useful, share an image of the document for us to see.

Cemetery record

Oh No.. ::)
 This woman cannot be a partner of MURRAY. Age makes it not possible.
According to this record Alice was born 1931.
So where is the error?

Ok,.
So Ada  Elizabeth nee McCREEDIE (variations) married Albert COOMBS.
there were children.

He died 1901 and Ada re-partnered with Albert COLGER.

There were children including Albert C CLOLGER.  36695/1906.

Albert C COLGER married in 1927 to Ada E JACKSON.at Balranald #9803
Their child was Probably Alice COLGER

So this Alice COLGER who married Emanuel COOPER in Not the one who married William MURRAY.

So you can take that line out of your folder.
