Robert Blake is the testator and is already known. He is married to Francis Poole and there are a number of wills which mention this family. This is a collateral line to Admiral Robert Blake.
The will of his youngest son John was blogged:

He remembers his sisters Francis, Jane and Elizabeth in his will. His elder brother Robert is already deceased at the time of his death. There are no Blake surname descendants to this family as only the daughter Jane has children.
Robert, the testator, was the son of Reverend Roger Blake and Jane St Albyn and they married 21 Oct 1747 at Nether Stowey. The father of Roger was also Reverend Roger Blake but wife is unknown thus far. The father of this Roger was also Roger Blake married to Susannah Taylor and they had a large family of eleven children. This Roger was the son of Humphry Blake the elder and Elizabeth Upon then back to Humphry Blake and Elizabeth Giles continuing back to Humphrey Blake and Agnus/Ann James who married 23 Oct 1578 at Over Stowey. This Humphrey the son of John Blake the elder and Johan and thence back to the founder Humphrey Blake and his wife Agnis.
