The one I clicked on, a message said that page could not be found. It was the one for the Elizabeth and Ann, that sailed from Liverpool, England on June 29, 1716. But, that gave me an idea & I typed in that ships name on Google & found a manifest(or whatever they call it) of the ship's passengers & I found my Prophet(Proffit) ancestor in the passengers who were on board that ship. 29 were indentured and my ancestor was among the 83 who were not indentured. The story goes that he refused to be indentured, so they forced him to come to the North.America Colonies anyway. When he got here he lived in Virginia & bound himself out to a family by name of Pleasant. It's believed that he married one of their daughters. He had the land he was given, then he sold some to someone, then bought some more & ended with quite a bit of land where he built a mansion on it. So, all of this because he tried to help overthrow the King of England. I haven't found my Lewis ancestor yet. They are supposed to have come from Wales to New Jersey.
