The link between the characters might be more symbolic. In a sense, Comstock is Ryan. There are obvious parallels. There is always a man and there is always a city. If you think of the lighthouses as not all possible realities, but solely all possible Bioshock realities, then it makes sense that they'd be able to operate the bathyspheres. They man not be genetically linked, but they are the same archetypical characters.

Wouldnt that also make Booker Ryan? Afterall, Comstock and Booker are the same person.

Not exactly what I meant.  The link between Comstock and Ryan or Jack and Elizabeth is metaphorical.  They're each part of retellings of the same story.  Metaphorically, they represent the same things, but I don't think they're literally the same person.
