The Dolphin, Walmer

[junedye64]

I've just discovered one of my ancestors were living in The Dolphin pub, Walmer.
Does anyone know if it is still there and if I could find a photo of it.

Have just googled and found that there was a Walmer Brewery, on the site of the Dolphin pub (Walmer Brewery near Dover)

Hi Finbar

Yes it's definitely Kent.

Hi Pennydog

I saw the article about the Brewery but I think that was about 1826.

My ancestors were there in 1917.

Good Morning, Junedye64, have had another look for you again if you google Walmer, you will find a site called Walmer Web, it is the town's own site. Select Local clubs & societies and on there is the Deal branch of the Kent Family History Society. There is a named member with an email contact who may be able to help you in your search.
Hope this is of use.

Thanks Pennydog

Had a look at that site. I'll see what I can find out.

Googling produced this family tree, which mentions the Dolphin. Might be worth contacting them to see if they know anything about it.
