Phebe m. Daniel Sayre and moved to Elizabeth, NJ. Issac Raynor was s/o Joseph and Mary (Young) Raynor. Joseph was s/o Thurston Raynor, who settled in Southampton between 1646 and 1649. Thurston Raynor, with his wife, Elizabeth, and five children, and his 10 year old nephew, Edward, left Ipswich, England on the ship, ELIZABETH, in April 1634 and landed in Boston in July 1634. They were the first Raynors to come to America. They settled first in Watertown, Massachusetts Bay Colony, and left there in 1636 to settle in Wethersfield, CT. Five years later, Thurston and his family, along with others from Wethersfield, settled what is now Stamford, CT. In 1644, Thurston and his family and some other families from Stamford went across Long Island Sound to settle Hempstead on western Long Island. Thurston and his family later moved on to the young town of Southampton on the south shore of Eastern Long Island. Thurston died there in 1667. Thurston lived in Elmsett, in the County of Suffolk, England, before coming to America.
