Beyond Hope: Comfort

Comfort Starr House, Guilford, CT
Dr. Comfort Starr was an early emigrant to Massachusetts. He had a bunch of children, some of whom moved to Connecticut. The Comfort Starr house is one of the oldest buildings in Connecticut.

Beyond Hope is a recurring feature that highlights unusual virtue names.

  1. I have seen a couple of people on name boards at least considering Comfort as a name (I think for girls). It may not be quite beyond all help yet! Someone told me they knew a teenage girl named Comfort or Comforter in England, but that's just hearsay.

    Comfort Starr is actually kind of a sweet name.
