John MCNEILL, b.~1814, m. Isabella ORR (b.~1818). They had 3 children born in Ireland: John (b.1840), Elizabeth (b.1842), and James (b.1844). We found a ship manifest for the a J&J Cooke ship called the Charles Napier that left Coleraine in 1847, and on it were John, Isabella, John, & James (but no Elizabeth.) It was headed to St John, Nova Scotia, but our McNeills ended up in Philadelphia, PA. I believe they were Protestant. Thank you for any help!

Hi Barb,
Thanks for your message.
I found a church baptism for a John McNeil in Derry, 1840 on www.rootsireland.ie However you need to buy credits to see the actual record:

This may or may not be relevant to your research, however if it is it will give you a parish for the family.
