Notes

Her maiden name is inferred from a will of Edward Thorley of Anne Arundel County, Maryland [Md . Cal. Wills, Vol. 1, p. 212], dated Dec 1678, probated 10 Feb 1678/9, believed to be her brother. In it, he bequests to his "Cousin Thomas Keene". At that time, the use of Cousin would refer most likely to a nephew. This conclusion is not rock solid, since it is possible that the relationship was indeed not that of nephew, or it is possible that the Thomas Keene named referred to another by the same name. Indeed, ["Keene Family Genealogy" owned by Harvey Warley Stedman, 1958, p.11] lists "Thomas Keene, living 1679, cousin of Edward Thorley" as a son of Henry Keene of Wadsworth, Surrey. However, the inference there was made purely as a result of the existance of the Ed. Thorley will and the presence of other sons of Henry Keene in Maryland. It thus appears that the Thorley theory is reasonably strong. The mention of first cousin Garner in later will of first cousin on the Keene side makes it a fact.

!Marriage(2): Deed dated 22 Mar 1658 [North. R.B. 15, p. 19; Ritchie & Wood p. 191] shows her to have married Henry Raynor.

!Marriage(3): Northumberland B. 15, pp. 19-20, records the marriage agreement, on 22 Mar 1658, of Mary Raynor, widow of Henry, and Thomas Broughton [Ritchie & Wood p. 191-2]

!Will: "Of Mary Broughton Widow relict of Thomas Broughton decd.", [Northumberland Co. R. B. 15, p. 92; Ritchie & Wood p. 192-3]. Dated 2 Jan 1662, recorded Feb 10, 1662. Names: William Keene (executor), James Daniell & George Courtnell (purpose for reference lost in mutilation of paper), daughter Susanna Gardner, John Gardner, my grandchild their daughter. Son Thomas Keene, son Matthew Keene (870 acres at Yeoaquomico), friend Thomas Daniell, William Mousely (god child), Elizabeth Perry and my servant Robert Briorio. Wit: John Tingey and Jos. Horsley.
