I am interested that you wrote that research about the Hewletts who lived in Bradley House was done some time ago. My husband is directly descended from Samuel Hewlett of Bradley House and there have been a number of family traditions in our family (our branch live in Sydney, Australia). I am trying to find more specific information and would appreciate any leads.

It is interesting about the glass making in the Forest as this has been a tradition "that the Hewletts were glass makers in Gloucestershire for 600 years".
