Claire Reymond, a human female born on Earth in the 20th century, was a homemaker and mother several children.
In 1994, Raymond died from what appeared to be an embolism. In reality, Raymond was a victim of the Eugenics Wars, having died in a poison gas attack. Following her death, her husband had Raymond placed in cryostasis in the hope that someday advances in medical science would eventually be able to revive her. Her frozen remains were placed on board a spacecraft with several other individuals - including Ralph Offenhouse and L.Q. "Sonny" Clemonds. Eventually the spacecraft left Earth orbit and drifted into interstellar space.
Eventually, in 2364 the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) encountered the spacecraft containing the frozen bodies. Only the bodies of Raymond, Offenhouse, and Clemonds were intact - the bodies of the others had decayed during the long journey. Lt. Commander Data and Lt. Worf brought the bodies back to the Enterprise, where they were then thawed out.
Doctor Beverly Crusher first gave Raymond a stimulant to wake her up, she lifted her head and saw Worf standing at the foot of her bed, and promptly fainted. She was awoken again, and taken to a conference room where Riker, Data, and Crusher filled the three survivors in on their situation.
The Enterprise began to travel to the Netural Zone to confront a Romulan warbird. During this time Raymond began thinking of her family, and began to despair when she realized that they were all long dead. Realizing Raymond's distress, Captain Jean-Luc Picard asked Counselor Deanna Troi to speak with her. Troi helped Raymond search through computer records to find out what had happened to her family.
Following the confrontation with the Romulans the Raymond and the other 20th century humans returned to Earth on board the USS Charleston. Before leaving the Enterprise, Troi and Raymond found a fifth great-grandson named Thomas Raymond living with his family near Indianapolis, Indiana. They located a picture record, and Raymond remarked the man looked just like her late husband Donald Raymond. Raymond decided that upon reaching Earth that she would seek out Thomas and his family.
