Tuttington Hall was the seat of Edward Blake Esquire. It is located near Aylsham, Norfolk. Edward Blake, esquire, buried there aged 57 the 10th Sep 1857. His baptism can be found in the Quaker Birth/Marriage/Death Registers and he was baptized (born 15 Jan 1800) at Saviours Norwich, Norfolk son of Dodshon Blake and Sarah. Dodshon Blake is a Linnen Manufacturer. The Death Duty Registers name Robert Blake as the executor of Edward Blake (1858).
Dodshon Blake was listed in the Bankrupt Directory 1820-1843 and the date 3 May 1842, page 41. He was a mohair manufacturer and merchant.
I could not find the birth of Samuel Blake in the same register but the probate definitely links Samuel back to this family as does his will.
