Briseis/Chriseis Feature Request

In Apollodorus Epitome 1.4.1 Briseis is cites as Chryses the priest's daughter. However, in the Characters file, Briseis does not have a father and Chryses' daughter is called Chryseis. Furthermore, in the Iliad 1.185 Agamemnon steals Briseis from Achilles because he had to give Chryseis, Chryses' daughter, back to the Trojans. I've marked Chryses up as father to the both of them with a long note showing the discrepancies between the accounts. It would be nice to have a way to more elegantly denote when characters have different genealogies in different works. ~Simon
