Lesanne,

if you put earl dundonald in Google Images and then follow up all the websites,
that will give you plenty more to keep you going for a while ...

There is a potted biography on the link that I have already posted, Lesanne, but in terms of the site, it is actually quite a lot of information.

Perhaps the Dictionary of National Biography at the library might be your next port of call.  It never does to neglect the library    

Is this man related to you in some way?  It would be nice to know why you are 'chasing' him.  At least there is a lot of information out there about him. Some people aren't so lucky!

There is a Dundonald Road in Broadstairs named after the Earl. His son was born here, not sure how long they stayed though.
