One of the descendants of Robert Blake (son of Nicholas who left his will in 1547 at Enham) and he was descended of John Blake the Elder and named John living at Upton as he died there before 25 Feb 1605 and his will is to come; he is mentioned by Charlou Dolan:

This John who left his will at Upton is traced down with his children named (by Charlou) as Agnes, Christian, Elizabeth and John.
There is a place called Blakes at Hurstbourne Tarrant and it is a Grade II building.

Checking Family Search, Find My Past and no sign of the Salmon family with Dorothy as mother. I will wait for more wills to be blogged in the Upton area.
