I found James Murrow (Morrow) and John, Jonas and Neile on this Ship John and Sara list. This may be my immigrant. How do I find details about them and track them back to my known Ancestor: James Morrow Born ABT 1715 and lived in Colerain TWSP Pa in Lancaster County and Died Before 1775. I just can't find his Dad and I've searched on ancestry.com for the above.

Can you post the links to the profiles - both the possible immigrant and your 1715 ancestor? Thanks!

This may seem silly, but I don't know how to post a link or what profile means.

A profile is a node in the tree. Everyone - including you and me - has a geni profile.

You can post the profile link (URL) by copying and pasting from the browser address bar (the http:// .. ) into a discussion. Or you can try either of the methods here

If that still doesn't work for you, let me know and I'll search the database. It's just there are a LOT of profiles!
