    3. Hi Wilma - I do not have information on Thurston Raynor's daughters, but the noted genealogist, Donald Lines Jacobus, had this to say about Abigail Raynor and John Scott in his article, "Raynor Notes - Long Isand," which appeared in the AMERICAN GENEALOGIST: "Abigail m. before 1667, John Rose, b. ca 1638, d. 17 Apr 1697, son of Robert and Dorothy Rose. We simply do not know how many times John Rose married, but his will dated 4 May 1696 names sons John, William and Martin, who seem to have received their portions, sons David and Thomas (wife Abigail is called their mother), son James, and daughter Hannah (under 18) (William S. Pelletreau, 'EARLY LONG ISLAND WILLS,' 150-153). Since his wife in 1667 was a daughter of Thurston Raynor, she was quite likely Abigail, and probably mother of Hannah (b. after 1678) as well as of David and Thomas. If the Raynor wife was mother of all the children, she would be nearer the age of John Rose, and may have been the eldest child of Thurston by Martha." Hope this helps.
