Hello My family lore suggested Waterford because of the surname POWER, but my research is pointing strongly to Cork. If anyone therefore has knowledge of, or connection with, any of the following individuals, many of them RC priests, and all of the same pedigree I've worked out, then I would be most interested to hear from you. There are others, but these are the key individuals: Fr John Power of Leap (1764-1831) Fr John Power, Curate of Youghal 1819, formerly Vicar General of NY (to be confirmed), died 1849 (to be confirmed) Pierce Power, Naval Surgeon, died 1833 Maurice Power (1777-1837), Naval Surgeon Fr Maurice Power (1798-1877), Gaelic scholar, translated the 'Tuireamh an Phaorag', church-builder, fund-raiser in America Fr Samuel Power, b. 1801 Tullineasky, died 1851 Grenada, British West Indies, my ancestor, trained Holy Ghost Seminary Paris Dr Power, emigrated to Germany, ancestor of the Von Kageneck family of Frieberg The family WISEMAN are also connected through marriage so anyone with information on this family would be welcome to contact me as well.
