Thomas Foster was my Great Great Grandfather. He had the
Camberwell Arms in the 1871
census as well as 1881. In 1859, at the White Hart where his son is born.
And again in 1861 he was a Beer Retailer at 64 Kennington
Lane, the White Hart. Later, in the 1891 census, his son Arthur Bradwell Foster (my Great
Grandfather) had the City of Norwich at 7 Maygood Street Islington;

I believe my Great Grandad, William Henry Newby, was the publican/worked at
the Camberwell Arms and that my Grandmother grew up there.
Her name was Ethel Rhoda Newby, she was born in 1919, at that time their
address was 61 Kimpton Road. Not sure if they lived at the pub, assumed they
had but then see the numbers are different. I am attaching a photo taken
within the pub of my Great Grandad, and an assistant.
I did go down to Kimpton Road to see if the house/pub were still there but a
new housing development was now there. ***
