In the 1861 census, Walter is recorded with his Grandparents, Richard & Sarah Hopkins.

The family was still living at St Leonard Hythe but I can't read the street address. Walter's birthplace is recorded as 'Hythe'. The 1901 census records the family at 4 Victoria Grove Cottage, Hythe St Leonard, Kent.

It also records that Violet was 'blind from childhood'.
