Old Ocean City

"When the Walkers journeyed to Ocean City, Maryland, it was to enjoy summers filled with target practice on the beach, hunting the abundant waterfowl, fishing, boating, picnicking, and bathing in the ocean. In 1908, William and Nannie Letitia Walker purchased a lot from the Sinepuxent Beach Company of Baltimore and built a small hunting lodge that, by 1910, had become a sturdy cottage. The Walkers named their summer home, which still stands at the corner of Baltimore Avenue and Seventh Street, "Romarletta," for their children Robert, Margaret, and Letitia.".
