Thomas (Tom) 
Carter
  formerly Seyler, In 1997, Nancy Spain's biggest secret was made public: Joan Werner Laurie's youngest son, Tom, was actually Nancy's child. His father was Philip Youngman Carter, husband of crime novelist Margery Allingham. "Rumor has it that Spain left a son, Thomas Carter, allegedly fathered by Philip 'Pip' Youngman Carter, but she did not acknowledge him publicly. Thomas was raised as the son of Joan Werner Laurie and his birth certificate shows him to be her son with Paul Seyler as his father. Spain's will left her estate to Joan Werner Laurie (as JWL's did to her), and Laurie being three years younger was assumed for legal purposes to have died after Spain. Laurie's son Nicolas inherited the joint estates as the eldest son, and thus Spain's alleged son inherited nothing. Nicholas paid for Thomas's education through college before settling 50% of the residue on him." see wikipedia entry for Nancy Spain.
