    Notes:

    I am making an assumption that this Comfort is the one mentioned as a daughter in the will of William Peirce of East Greenwich. This will was written and dated 15 July 1791, proved 27 August 1791. I have used this information in estimating her birth date.

    If the above assumption is correct, she was a daughter, probably the youngest, of William & Catherine. Her siblings, as mentioned in the will, were Phebe (w/o Caleb Andrews), Sarah (w/o John Place), Deborah, & Mary.
