Kent Lookup Requests / Re: Looking for Robert Bullen's mum of Walmer, Deal Kent

Hi Elaine and Marie,
Just came across this old post of yours whilst doing some research myself. My wife is a decendant of the Bullen family in Walmer. I am afraid it looks like you were barking up the wrong tree with the Parents of Robert Bullen. This link which I only found myself yesterday should help you

In answer to your other question, Walmer was at one time a seperate village to Deal about 1 mile down the coast towards Dover. Over the years as Deal and Walmer grew they have kind of merged into one. Mind you - I live in Walmer (not Deal) as the distinction still makes about £15000 difference to the property price!
Deal was always the bigger town and at various times they have both been under the administrative control of Sandwich and Eastry which are now all part of the Dover District.
Hope this helps, let me know if I can be of any further help
Sam
