The "801" vote figure included on this Wikipedia page is from http://www.dennispaul.org/Politics/roll_-_onslow.htm. This webpage also gave vote figures for B Parke of 1055 and K Johns of 773 both of which matched those in the Surrey Advertiser for this 1991 election. However the webpage wrongly stated that B Parke was elected in this 1991 election.
