George Love & Mary Smith from Ireland 1791

Has anyone been able to get back beyond George Love b. 1748 in Ardstraw, County Tyrone, Ireland. He married Mary Isabella Smith in County Tyrone, Ireland about 1769. They had 7 children.

In 1791 George and Mary set sail for America. After a rough voyage they arrive in the port of New York. From there they traveled to Washington Co., PA. Accompanying them on their migration was George's sister Nancy and her husband Benjamin Anderson along with each couples respective children.

It is known that this Love line left Scotland in the last half of the 17th century due to religious persecution. They were Calvinists and Presbyterians almost to a man and suffered much for their faith.

I am looking for George's parents who are most likely buried in county Tyrone, Ireland. I'm also looking for information on their roots in Scotland.
