Notes for Rita Sylvia Berens
Her birth index:

Rita S Berens, Q4 of 1913, Mother=Blackwood, Bromley dist, vol 2A, p. 1059
______________________

There is a card index note of her marriage in India.  Now to see if they came back and/or had any children.  One birth found:

‘David S Boyle, b. Q2 of 1942 in Kingsclere dist, vol 2C, p. 571’

I think this needs a birth certificate to see who his parents were.  Ordered on 5 May 2021.

It came back with an affirmative that he was the son of Rita and Patrick.
______________________

Not in 1939 Register, probably because she was in India by then.

In her will dated 23 Nov 2000 she listed:

1. Her son son David Spencer Boyle, executor,
2. Her grandson Major Robert Boyle, executor
3. Her grandchild Fenella Maria Boyle
4. He grandson Jamie Patrick William Boyle

The net value of her estate was £128,796 and was to be divided between the above last two grnadchildren who reached the age of 25.

At Probate the Executors were (indeed):

DAVID SPENCER BOYLE of The Dower House Dunthrop Road Heythrop Chipping Norton Oxfordshire OX7 5TL.
ROBERT ALGERNON RADCLIFFE BOYLE of The Stone House White Road Nere Wiltshire  BA12 6EZ.
________________

It sounds as if her son David had two families, one that produced Robert and a second family that produced the much younger Fenella and Jamie.  This may lead to identifying their mothers and the marriages of David Spencer.
