Hi all I am new to this list and yes I am yet another Irish descendant in Australia. I am hoping that somebody can help me locate details about a John POWER who married Catherine (Kate) Murphy nee Phelan between 1872 and 1875. John was a grocer in Broad Street Waterford in 1875 when my great grandmother Margaret Mary POWER was born. He came from Ross Kilmeadan. Kate was first married to a William MURPHY in 1872 (Waterford) when her first daughter Mary Margaret MURPHY was born. The POWER family emigrated first to England in 1879, having daughter Alice POWER in England in 1881. They emigrated to Australia that same year, settling in Rockhampton then Townsville. If anyone can help please reply. I am also interested in having an email friend in Ireland if anyone is interested. I am 40 with two young boys. I travelled through Waterford briefly in 2000 but was unable to do any research while I was there. I loved the area and would love to travel in Ireland again. Farewell from a hot day in Oz.
