Just a couple of suggestions concerning Nathaniel Porter's birthplace.
1. Don't think of the Europe to America migration as a one way street. After all, Benjamin Franklin lived in Englad for approx 20 years, after having been born in PA. It is possible that Nathaniel's parents found it too hard on the frontier and returned to Ireland. It is also possible that Nathaniel went to Ireland for education.
2. You may be incorrect as to Nathaniel's place of birth. Do you have any proof that he was born in PA?
