I am still confused with this Comfort Prettyman.

For Elizabeth Burton & William Prettyman (SO Robert Prettyman & Sarah
Burton) I have for children Robert I and John, but no Comfort.
For Thomas Prettyman & Elizabeth Enloes I have Comfort Prettyman married
to John Rogers. Their daughter, Lavina Rogers, married Prettyman Marvel.
