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

Australia / Victoria, Australia. Catherine BIRD
« on: Saturday 20 June 20 01:37 BST (UK)  »
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

Clare / Looking for Catherine Malone in Ennis Co Clare
« on: Thursday 21 May 20 08:24 BST (UK)  »
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.

Waterford / Drohan
« on: Saturday 03 August 19 03:08 BST (UK)  »
Wondering if anyone has information about my great grandmother Johanna Drohan. She was possibly born 1810 in Dungarvan or Stradbally, Co Waterford. She married my great grandfather John Power in approximately 1835 possibly in that area.
I have the names and dates of their children who were all born in Stradbally or Abbeyside.
Thanks,
Biddyp

Waterford / Power/Drohan Stradbally
« on: Tuesday 19 March 19 01:58 GMT (UK)  »
Still looking for more information re John Power who married Johanna Drohan. I have the baptisms of their children, names & dates, but nothing about their parents. They might have been married in 1835 as the first child was born in 1836, Mary. The 8 children were born in Stradbally and Abbyside.

Family History Beginners Board / BIRD, William, Chatham
« on: Sunday 01 July 18 05:45 BST (UK)  »
I had previously posted a message for William Bird being born in :) Clapham but have recently discovered that he may have been born in Chatham, Kent. His father was also William Bird and he married Anne Brookes. William Bird, my great Grandfather, was born approximately 1829 and came to Australia in his 20's. He was a seaman as was his father. He married Margaret Ryan in Melbourne in 1857.
I would like to know more information about his family in Chatham if possible.

Tipperary / Quinn/Byrne Tipperary North
« on: Wednesday 27 April 16 06:40 BST (UK)  »
With thanks to Roots chat people I have found some of my ancestors but now I am trying to find when my great great great grandparents, Timothy Quinn married Mary Byrne. I have found baptism records for their children, Elizabeth b 18.09.1815, Anne b 07.04.1817 and Thomas b 17.12.1819, so presume that the parents were married perhaps the year before. The children were baptised in Templemore, Tipperary and are Roman Catholic.

I also would love to find records of Timothy Quinn and his wife, Mary Byrne's baptism record but that would be in the 1700's so records may not go back that far.
Thanks

Australia / Michael Ryan, "Napier" ship 1865
« on: Tuesday 01 July 14 08:57 BST (UK)  »
I am searching for Michael Ryan, who sailed on the same ship as my great grandmother, Margaret Ryan, to Melbourne, Victoria in 1865. He may have been her brother. She went to Allansdale (now Allanford) near Warrnambool, Victoria and if he was her brother, he may have also gone there.
She married James Traynor in Warrnambool in 1868, then they moved to Purnim, later to Marraweeney, then to Warragul.
The only birthplace I have for Margaret Ryan is Tipperary, Ireland.
I would appreciate any assistance.
