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!

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