A COMPENDIUM ON LEYTON HIGHTOWER'S CHILDREN & THEIR AGES
Leyton Hightower had ten children in a time span of potentially fifty years. We only know a more narrow time frame of a few of his children (Alerie, Lynesse), while others can span across decades. This is an attempt to narrow down their ages. For that, I'll assume they had their first children no younger than 16. You'll also see some thoughts on their possible mothers, albeit that's just speculation without real basis and just random thoughts I want to mention.
(Names of their spouses have been included for easier overview and later analysis. While two children could have been born in the same year, I disregarded it in favor for visual clarity in the headlines, but the explanation treats it looser.)
THE CHILDREN
Baelor Hightower-Rowan (est. 254-258 AC)
He's Leyton's oldest son and the only indication we have for his age is that he was considered a suitor for Elia Martell, which would make me put him around her age (256-257 AC), perhaps a few years older. A young and pretty lad, as Oberyn describes him, makes me think he's rather close to their age. Additionally, Elia had also found him appealing, so he wouldn't be much older or younger than her. I could stretch his age to maybe 250 AC and a little more. Anything older and I'd imagine Oberyn to have used a different description and for Elia to be less interested.
Baelor: Anywhere 250s AC
Potentially named after Baelor the Blessed, this could be the son of someone with deep religious beliefs, or a royalist — potentially a Targaryen affiliate as a mother?
Malora Hightower (est. 255-260 AC)
Malora is the second oldest, and the only information we have is that she is younger than Baelor and older than Alerie, which can put her anywhere between 251 and 263 AC.
Malora: Anywhere in the 250s up to early 263AC.
The name Malora appears nowhere else. It could possibly have valyrian influences or a lesser known name within Westeros. It could be that due to having very distinctive names, her and Baelor share a mother, while later children might have a different one.
Alerie Hightower-Tyrell (257-260AC)
She's younger than Mace, who was born no earlier than 256 AC, as he's less than 10 years older than Cersei. The comment from Tywin about a younger woman that would outlive Mace implies a bigger age gap, which could be at most eight years. Putting her birth year at the latest possible year of 264 would make her very young (a mother at 12). If she had Willas at 16 at the latest possible date (276 AC), that would place her birth in 260 AC.
I'm not convinced she would have had a child so young. Possibly a GRRM numberism, but it sounds a bit odd. If it did happen, I'd be beyond curious how it came to be. Baelor was courting Elia in 272, Malora also unmarried in this time. No conflict to push a marriage with Leyton's second daughter so early, which makes me suspect she's born a few years before 264.
If Alerie was born in the 250s, it is likely her and her older siblings share a mother. If she were born in the 260s, an appropriate mourning time could have taken place in between, possibly making her the daughter of the second mother.
Alerie: Late 250s to early 260s.
Al– are common Reach names and would fit well with names such as Garth. Marrying the Lord Paramount of the Reach might point at her being the daughter of the first mother, as it would otherwise pass over Malora as a match. Alternatively, a second mother could have attempted to establish herself and her daughter with such a favourable match.
Garth Hightower (258-268 AC)
As we know roughly the age of Lynesse (half of Jorah's age, so around 17 in 289 AC), we can calculate the latest possible date for her older siblings. With her being born around 271-272 AC, and there being three siblings between them, Garth cannot be born any later than 267/268 AC and any earlier than Alerie.
Similar to Alerie, he could be the son of a first or second mother. By far the most "dignified" Reach name to be had. It could be a sign to establish this son and proclaim his possibilities, which might have been an indication for the second mother.
Denyse Hightower-Redwyne (est. 259–269AC)
Due to Lynesse, we can estimate that Denyse was born no later than 268/269 AC and no earlier than Garth. Her son Denys is a squire in 300 AC, which means he could be anywhere between 9 or 18.
Des— names appear with the Redwynes. Desmera, Desmond, Denys. Is it possible she's married a Redwyne cousin or GRRM just like the names combined, as she married Desmond Redwyne, and they had Denys.
Leyla Hightower-Cupps (est. 260–270 AC)
Due to Lynesse, we can estimate that Denyse was born no later than 268/269 AC and no earlier than Denyse.
Leyla reads like a Reach name. Potentially the female version of Leyton?
Alysanne Hightower-Ambrose (est. 261-271 AC)
Due to Lynesse, we can estimate that Denyse was born no later than 268/269 AC and no earlier than Leyla. Alysanne does have a son who is a squire, and seems to be in a similar age to his betrothed Elinor Tyrell, who is around Sansa's age, born in 286 AC. So I'd put her son anywhere between 13 and 18 in 300 AC, putting his birth anywhere between 282 and 287 AC. If Alysanne birthed him at 16, I would personally put her birth year anywhere between 264-271 AC.
The current Lady Bulwer is named Alysanne, born to Jon Bulwer and Victaria Tyrell in 291 AC, which might hint at a possible relation, a shared mother/aunt/grandmother perhaps?
Lynesse Hightower-Mormont (271–272 AC)
The information we have on Lynesse is that she is half the age of Jorah in 289 AC, when he's 35, which would put her around 17, plus minus a few years, depending on how accurate Jorah was with this. She is now residing as head concubine to Tregar Ormollen in Lys. (A lot of ages on this post depend on him being so.)
Assuming there was a break between Alysanne and Lynesse, it could be theorized that Lynesse is the daughter of the third mother. Further removed than Leyla and more unlikely, but could Lynesse be a different female version for Leyton?
Gunthor Hightower-Fossoway Green (est. 272-285AC)
Being younger than Lynesse puts his birth no earlier than 272 AC and being older than Humfrey, no later than 285 AC.
We know of no other Gunthor within the Reach. It might be a name derived from Garth? If him and Humfrey were born in the 270s, it is likely for them to be the children of the last mother before Rhea Florent. If they were born in the latr 280s, they could be her sons, as Rhea's older sister, Melara Florent-Tarly, had her oldest son Samwell Tarly in 283 AC, and Rhea likely would have not had children before then. However, we also never see Sam thinking about Gunthor as a cousin.
Humfrey Hightower (273-285 AC)
In 300 AC, Humfrey is a known knight, which would make him the very least 15 at that point, putting his last possible birth year in 285 AC, and no earlier than Gunthor, earliest in late 272 AC.
The name Humfrey/Humphrey has appeared with Beesburys and Bulwers within the Reach.
This is all just speculation for the fun of it. I'm also currently working on a more thorough breakdown for the possible mothers and different possible sibling dynamics, one reason while some points are a bit wishy washy here, mostly to remember any thoughts I had.

The hightower sisters, thanks to @highgardenart 's suggestion, I designed the 2 elder daughters of Leyton Hightower and loved the planning and gathering of references for the fashion of the Reach
I'll write more on my headcanons for the Reach fashion below if anyone is interested in that!
Also, closeups of Alerie's dress!
My inspo was mainly late 15th/early 16th italian fashion, with some big sleeves and lots of nice patterns, embroidery, motifs, and fabric (which I think would be very popular around the Reach). Lots of slashed sleeves because fabric is costly!
Jewels are a must but not the main show (unlike those flashy Lannisters), and the hair is what I can describe as "pretend you woke up and did this in 30 minutes" like showMarg, where she has pretty hairstyles but they feel more "natural" and less elaborate than Cersei's updos, but they're just as complicated, (it's all part of the persona) with the presence of decorative veils (which could be callback to fully veiled women back in ancient Andal fashion back in essos, but that's just headcanon) I feel that this is more in line with the "romantic" notion and tradition of the Reach!
And it's all supposed to be very romantic and very fitting to the courtly love aesthetic (they're doing the Victorian old trick of romanticizing ancient eras just for romance sake)
Alerie is dressed more within accord to Highgarden/Central Reach fashion, where I'd guess where she'd be wearing a kirtle and above it, that'd be the "overdress"/giornea inspired garment, filled with rose patterns and just a few towers to honor both houses (but more house Tyrell, since she's the lady of the family), the sleeves are very slashed and in my headcanon it would more similar to other dresses around the continent, while Malora is dressed in a typical fit around Oldtown, which is not necessarily THAT different but it still (hopefully) has its differences, like much fuller sleeves and lower neckline, showing more of the chemise, and fuller, pleaded skirt, (characteristics that I also have a headcanon for, they're originally from Braavosian dresses and then adopted by other port cities)
I also included some personal touch for both women, Alerie's hair rings as mentioned by cannon, and for Malora, I included a chain meant to mimick/pay homage to Maesters and a overdress/ropa because it'd be chilly at the top of the Hightower
So anyways, if you made it here, congrats, hope you like it! And that's it!
