Waterford / Power - Abbyside
« on: Thursday 18 March 21 07:28 GMT (UK)  »
I'm looking for any information of the parents of my great grandfather, John Power, who was born in Abbeyside, or Stradbally, Co Waterford, in approximately 1810. He married Anastasia Harney in approximately 1834.
I realise that Power is a very common name especially in Waterford but hoping someone may point me in a direction where I could find more information.
Thanks Biddyp

Hi Sparrett/Sue,
Thanks for that I have looked up her will and probate and found that she must have owed George Wilson some money and also that she owned a block of land at 19 Newman St Northcote. She may have lived there with her daughter Catherine before Catherine's marriage to my grandfather Patrick Power. I will now try and look up the rates notice for Northcote in 1890 or so and see if they were living there then.
I can only find 19 Newman St at Thornbury but it might have been Northcote in those early days as I think it's nearby.

Dear Shume,
Thank you for your reply. Yes, My grandfather Patrick Power who married Catherine Bird (Margaret's daughter) must have moved to Euroa in 1892 or 1893. I think Catherine's mother, Margaret must have also moved there then or soon after as that is where she died. It seems from Probabte that she had a block of land at Northcote Melbourne so maybe that is where they lived in Melbourne.
Thanks again,
Biddyp

Thank you Sparrett,
Or Sue,
The witnesses on their marriage certificate were Andrew Bourke and Elizabeth Loughlan but I have no idea who they were. They were married in the Catholic Church in Carlton on 27th October 1888.
Thanks once again,

Thank you, Jamjar. On my grandmother's marriage certificate Catherine's Residence is Carlton and she is a Staymaker. Her husband Patrick Power's place of residence is East Brunswick.
They must have moved to Euroa, Victoria, in 181892 or 1893 as their next child was born in Euroa.
Thanks once again,

Australia / Victoria, Australia. Catherine BIRD

Hi, I am trying to find when my grandmother Catherine BIRD went to Melbourne from Landsborough Vic., Her father William Bird died in Stawell in 1875. Her mother Margaret BIRD (nee RYAN) went with her daughter Catherine to Melbourne and may have lived in Carlton as Catherine was married there in 1888 according to her marriage certificate. Catherine married Patrick Power and I think they may have lived in Footscray as my father John Thomas Power was born there.
I can't see anything on Rates notices but they may have been renting and I don't think they would be on the rates notices.
Catherine BIRD was born in Landsborough in 1864.
Thank you

Thank you Heywood. I found the information re Catherine Malone from her daughter's (Margaret Ryan) marriage certificate. I'll look on the registers link that you sent me.

Clare / Looking for Catherine Malone in Ennis Co Clare

My great grandmother was Margaret Ryan whose mother was Catherine Malone. Margaret was allegedly born in Ennis in approximately 1838. She came to Australia in approx the early 1850's and married William Bird in 1857 in Melbourne.
I can't find anything about Catherine except that she was married to either Patrick or John Ryan.

I have tried to check their names and have found a possible connection with Honora Drohan but no Johanna Drohan as her sibling. Might have been a cousin.
