Fiona Bonham-Carter, aged 51, said to be a cousin of Helena Bonham
Carter, the actress, and her estranged husband Charlie Egerton-
Warburton (LG? related to the earls of Selborne etc) have lost their
14-year-son Marcus Egerton-Warburton in an accident in South Africa.

Fiona's mother Brenda Bonham Carter, aged 74, and her [???] Francis
Kirkwood, 75, were also killed along with the teenager. The fourth
victim is said to be Kay Boardman, wife of Fiona's brother Graham
Bonham-Carter, aged 48.

How are these Bonham-Carters related to the actress, and the Egerton-
Warburtons to the Priscilla Egerton-Warburton who married two peers?
