Patsy, Through the LDS Family History Center you can order the appropriate film which has the Soundex Code Index (soundex) to passenger lists of vessels arriving at New York, July 1, 1902-December 31, 1943. The soundex code for Power is P600 P 552 Maria to P 600 Maria FHL US/CAN Film 1380040 The film is a copy of the originals which may be available through the NARA center in Waltham, MA. My wife's roots, by the way are the Brien and Boland families in Outer Cove and many of their records were in Holy Trinity RC Church in Torbay. Teresa Brien of Outer Cove, a relative of my wife, married the Willie Powers, who died recently in Newfoundland.
