Hi

Can anyone help me find a marriage or death record of a William Westrup born 1910 Cranbrook, Kent. He move to Australia in 1925 as a 15 year old Farmhand. He sailed from London to Sydney Australia on the passenger ship, SOPHOCLES.
I have tried to locate these records but can not seem to find them.

Regards

Paul
