Eugene,

The profile for Elizabeth Comyn shows a marriage to Philip de Vaux, which is incorrect. Philip died in 1225, and Elizabeth was born in 1223. See FMG: http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/SCOTTISH%20NOBILITY%20UNTITLED.htm#ElizabethComyndied1267MWilliamMar

According to a note in the Profile, the name associated with Philip was Isabel, and it came in with a GEDCOM (probably a bad merge.) In addition, John's father was Robert, wife unknown, not Philip. See: http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/ENGLISHNOBILITYMEDIEVAL3T-Z.htm#_Toc389115901

I will clean up this profile and disconnect Elizabeth from Philip and son John. Vic
