We don't know where this took place in terms of the Silents' history. I'm guessing that the Silents in the beginning of Series 6 were, infact, the descendants of those featured in The Time of the Doctor. With the Crack closed and Trenzalore a smoking ruin, and with the mainframe destroyed by the Daleks, the church may have fallen into disarray. However the Silents who appeared alongside Madame Kovarian in The Wedding of River Song were priests from the rogue faction, whereas those which appeared in the Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon were not. Either those Silents have a completely seperate personal history, or as I said above - they are descendants of those who fought on Trenzalore.
If that is the case then the Silents on Trenzalore would have no problem fighting alongside the Doctor, as they would have zero connection with the Silents who eventually invaded Earth.
That was my interpretation anyway.
Was it ever suggested as to why the church required genetically-engineered life-forms like the Silents? It'd be a good spying too I imagine, or a good way to keep their followers in check.I write articles/features/reviews for I'm With Geek.com now. Check out our stuff if you get a minute!

Afer she turned into a dalek (and back to herself again) the Doctor tells to keep fighting the Dalek inside her and says: You've been fighting the psycopath inside you all your life... Right after they sppoke about the psycopath, who was created to kill the Doctor wich he married aka River. So could it be that she actully is River? Don't realy think that would work, but it nearly sounds like it.

In The Silence in the Library and Forest of the Dead River said that the last time she was with the Doctor was on their date at the Singing Towers of Darillium and it was after this date that she received her 'upgraded' sonic screwdriver.
In the Series 6 DVD/Blu-ray extra Last Night shows River and the 11th Doctor just before setting off for this date.No Sam w/o a Jack and no Jack w/o a Sam.
It's like and immutable law of the multiverse.

In the ending of Closing Time just before River is put in the Apollo spacesuit that emerges from Lake Silencio, Kovarian says that she has always known exactly where Melody/Mels/River was ever since she escaped her first spacesuit in The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon.No Sam w/o a Jack and no Jack w/o a Sam.

Next in her timeline is as the little girl in The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon which also included her first regeneration. There followed an unknown time which ended when she again regenerated into Mels, Amy's best friend growing up in Leadworth which ended in her regeneration into River Song in Let's Kill Hitler.

Realistically and without screwing up any timelines or more "I lie" crap, the only hidden regeneration River could have had was between Melody in 70s New York and Mels in Leadworth during the 90s, but as she said she was in New York when that regeneration happened, still wouldn't explain how she got to England as a toddler, or who was raising her.
