Post by: mhac on Wednesday 14 August 13 13:38 BST (UK)

I looking for any information on a William Power who married Mary O'Neill in St John's church Waterford in 1937. William was from the Gracedieu area and Mary's address was given as Waterside.
Any info welcome.

Waterford City library also has a card index to the Waterford News that covers the 1940s, it has births , marriages and deaths as well as other information in it. Waterford Archives in High Street has register of electors records which would tell you the places they lived in the city.

Thank you both for replies. Yes the Library seems a good idea. I will do that. It is easier find people in the 1800's than in the 1900's. The family may have emigrated, but I'm hoping somebody might recognise them.
