Hi scfunk2002,

The Family Research Guide from the Maryland Historical Society indicates if you found your ancestor in the published index in this book ...

A Guide to Published Arrival Records of about 500,000
Passengers who came to the United States and Canada in the Seventeenth, Eighteenth, and Nineteenth Centuries (3 volumes plus supplements), edited by P. William Filby with Mary K. Meyer

... then the published or original record may be held at the society.

Maryland Historical Society

Since you already have the names of two Maryland-bound ships
the society may have the listing.

The Virginia Historical Society recommends consulting three Peter Coldham books:

The Complete Book of Emigrants. 4 vols. 1607–1776
The Complete Book of Emigrants in Bondage, 1614–1775
More Emigrants in Bondage, 1614–1775

I hope you're able to find the listings. Good luck!
