Someone on here answered one of my posts and told there was a row of old cottages with the same name as my family in the area they were all born dated 1892, Called Blewitts Cottages, Rainham, Essex.....I just googled it and one is up for sale with a photo.........I am thinking of phoning up the agent and ask for a viewing...Do you think that's naughty......??????Please say NO.........Linda

Of course its not. I'd be down there like a shot. Then I'd visit the essex record office and find out if your ancestor was responsible for them. (Just tried A2A but couldn't find anything)

Hi Jean, Thanks for that. How interesting. They have got photos of the rooms in the house for sale but of course VERY modern. Linda
