Ernest Roberts was elected in 1908 after a [[by-election]] caused by the death of Charles Kingston. Kingston, a former Premier of South Australia, had been elected in 1903 unopposed. However Roberts died in 1913 which also caused a by-election. In 1988 Chris Hurford resigned to become the Australian Consul-General in [[New York]], which also caused a by-election.
