(Joseph?) Cornelius Carmichael was born between 1690 and 1702, in Scotland and died circa 1780, in Mifflin Co., Pennsylvania
In 1727, in Scotland, Cornelius married Isabella (?nee) born before 1713, in Scotland. Children of Cornelius and Isabella include: *John Carmichael b: 19 JAN 1727/28 in Apinshire, Scotland
The only information on this family came from the same family tree with no citations. There is even a Find A Grave memorial with the same information and no citations. Joseph and Isabella are unlikely names for Scotland and the couple could be from Northumberland.

Have you reviewed the Notes section on Carmichael-685? I agree that initially I didn't think these profiles were meant to be the same person and neither profile has normally reliable sources, but unfortunately, that is not required for the 1700s.
In Carmichael-685:
If you google Apinshire Scotland or look in Scotlands Places, which is the site used by Scotland Project for information on locations, there is no Apinshire, Scotland. The biography of the profile can state that the birth location is not certain, as Scotland, Ireland, or Pennsylvania, as stated on some sources.
Comparing the profiles completely, they do seem to have meant to be the same person, so they should be merged. Before merging, I would recommend 'cleaning up' Carmichael-685 to remove the gedcom format so the biographies will be easier to merge, but I don't want to revise it until a better review is done by you of that profile so you will see it with the information and format as entered.
