Thurston, whose wife’s name/dates/places are unknown, had six daughters and no son, I cannot find any verifiable birth/death dates for any of the children, except Isabella, so I assume the birth years listed on their individual profiles are unverified! (MedLands say they all died after Jan/Feb 1223).
