Laurie Sweet from the Hawkesbury Area New South wales Australia
Hello all,
I have very little information to assist, but here goes in case someone knows more information.
I am looking for Laurie Sweet, only son of Tupp (not sure if this is his real name or not, or even if the spelling is correct) Sweet and Wilma Sweet nee Drage.
They resided somewhere along the Hawkesbury river in New South Wales, Australia, and access to their property was via the river.
Tupp I believe drowned in the Hawkesbury river around 40+ years ago. I have no further records of Wilma Sweet/Drage or for Laurie.
Laurie was also known as Laurie junior or Little Laurie.
Any help or information would be appreciated, trying to help trace family medical history.

I think Tupp was a nickname.

Now Lorrie Lesley SWEET jnr. last address I have for him is back in 1980 living with Marnie Irene at Lot 18 Lepemi Place, North Haven. NSW
Now that you have the correct spelling you may go into any electoral office and view the current electoral rolls. I suppose if they are still living they would be in their eighties.
His wife's name is Mamie, not Marnie as my old eyes saw it.
Here is the marriage:
