>>Tom Raynham and Louise Townshend 

I presume this is the heir Thomas Charles Townshend, styled Viscount Raynham (who married Octavia Legge in 2011) and his sister Lady Louise Townshend, children of the Marquess Townshend by his late 1st wife Hermione Ponsonby.   The connection is on the maternal side, via their grandmother Dorothy Edith Jane Lane (d 1994), dau of Henry Hervey Vincent Lane.  The late Jane Lane was a first cousin of Thomas and Louise Townshend's mother Viscountess Raynham nee Ponsonby (1945-1985).  

 
http://www.thepeerage.com/p5239.htm#i52384  Thomas John Henry Vincent Lane (1905-1941) [father of the Thomas (1934-2013?) and Jane (1935-2013) mentioned here] was an elder brother of Dorothy Edith Jane Lane (1913-1994). Their mother was Hon Grace Edwardes, a daughter of the 4th Baron Kensington.

A few minor additions, simply because I've been looking at the Lane family:

Based on BLG 1965, the 'Giana' mentioned above is Georgiana Luke (b. 1945), dau. of Jane Lane's younger sister (all four of whom bore the name 'Jane' as their final Christian name [as was the case with her father's sisters, the name only appearing intermittently however in previous generations]; as the eldest, her name appears simply to have been 'Jane', as above), Lettice Georgina [n.b.- both BLG 1965 and the National Archives- https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C10301513 - indicate this to have been her second name, as opposed to 'Georgiana', which given her daughter's name might be expected] Jane Lane (1911-[seemingly alive at the time of her ex-husband's death in 1995; his previous ex-wife was noted to be deceased in his Independent obituary]); she was wife of (m. 1937, div.) Richard Whitling Crawshaw, then (m. 1945, div.) Maj. Peter Ambrose Cyprian Luke (1919-1995), M.C., The Rifle Brigade, a writer, editor, and producer, inc. for ABC TV and the B.B.C. [s. of the Colonial Office official Sir Harry Charles Luke, K.C.M.G.]. Georgiana Luke's brother, Henry Rupert Charles Luke (b. 1946) was noted to be deceased in his father's Independent obituary.

The following articles give detail on Georgiana Luke's marriage to Tom Ferguson, of Gubbeen Farm (the family produces award-winning cheeses), West Cork, their son Fingal (married to Ciara Putz, with four sons) and daughter Clovisse (this spelling per the articles, contrary to the notice above; search results seem split). Mention of the connection to Sir Harry Luke is also made.


EDIT- Georgiana 'Luke' rather than 'Lane', of course.
