I have ordered this will in the hope that she lists a few of her family.

In her will of 14th Dec 1990 she appointed as executors her daughter Victoria Mary Jennings and her son Benjamin Simon Robert Talbot.  In a codicil of 12th Dec 2003, she dropped her son as an executor and added in his place her brother Lionel Geoffrey Stopford Sackville of Drayton House (etc) with Andrew Denys Hine as a reserve executor (in fact not needed).

She listed:

1. Her two children as above,
2. The trustees of her marriage Settlement:
   (a) Benjamin Robert Chetwynd Talbot  (her husband)
   (b) Nigel Victor Stopford Sackville  (her father)

My profound guess is that this marriage was at Lowick, nearest the family mansion of Drayton Ho.

Ancestry seems to have stopped sproducing church registrations from after WW2.
