For “Died” 27 JUN 1948 of Elizabeth Minnie Maple

Elizabeth died at the Newington State Hospital on the Parramatta River, a place also referred to as "Silverton".

Family testimony (Shirley via Helen Stallman) corroborating the tree's existing Newington State Hospital, Silverwater NSW death place. "Silverton" is almost certainly a family mishearing/misrecollection of "Silverwater" - the actual Silverton is an outback NSW town near Broken Hill, nowhere near the Parramatta River. Place left unchanged.
