Hi :)

There is a transcription service available in NSW - costs around AUD$17 - the transcription is emailed.
http://www.bdm.nsw.gov.au/familyHistory/howToSearch.htm#TranscriptionAgent

May I suggest you read Australian Resources at the top of the board - there is a board for NSW - lots of links.

May I suggest that you remove the names of any possible living people. 
A link that includes the relevant advice from our moderator :)

SHAW Ada

Do you have Ada's parents' names?  You will need them to identify her in the death indexes ie if she died before 1978.

This marriage may be also be of interest.

Apologies Kris for duplicating information.  It will be wonderful when the red warning notices of interim postings is re-instated.
