If your ancestor emigrated at that time and especially if he was an Indian fighter in Ohio it is almost certain he was an Ulster Presbyterian from the North and an “Irishman” of a very different stripe from the Catholic emigrants who emigrated from southern and western Ireland since the mid-nineteenth century famine and who settled mainly in the cities of the north and east of the United States.

I don't think he was an Indian fighter. I do have reason to believe that my Irish ancestors were Catholics. My immediate family is a mixture of Catholic and Protestant.
