Some things you could try:

The newly released 1911 census online — if you haven’t already.

Kent FHS publishes an excellent CD of Whitstable directories — it’s their CD Rom 18. Goes up to 1940. You can order online.

British Library would be a good place to try for an Absent Voters’ List. From conversations with Brit Lib staff a couple of years ago, I believe that not all AVLs survive, though (i.e. their collection is not complete). Quite possibly there would also be copies in local Kent archives in Canterbury and Maidstone but I have not seen them.
