The Act of Settlement 1701 requires that the monarch "join in communion with the Church of England", which effectively means they can't be Roman Catholic.

Did the English prohibited Roman Catholics from migrating to the American colonies?

It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church.I know of no such laws, although you must remember that it was illegal to be Catholic in England from 1534 when Henry VIII and Parliment created the "Church of England" to the Roman Catholic relief act of 1829. Many Catholics did migrate, especially to Maryland, but they were a tiny percentage of the population. You might say that the English prohibited people from being Catholic, much less from migrating.
