https://trove.nla.gov.au/search/advanced/category/newspapersBy around 1949 George Robert and Isabel Deborah NIPPER were both listed as at 9 Mitchell St, Tighes Hill. In 1958 the electoral roll for Wickham has Isabel Deborah NIPPER still at that address, and also at that address was Frederick James BOND, a minister of the gspl. (gspl would be abbreviation for gospel). It was not unusual for lay members of the various protestant denominations to find local families to provide board and lodging for their pastors, who often may have needed to find part time secular work to provide for their daily living expenses. In the 1950s in NSW there were severe housing shortages in urban areas.
