I have received four responses to-date to a posting that I made three days ago about Henry Power. Encouraged by that success, I am now trying a second posting about another Power relation about whom I have very little information. I am searching for information on the a step-uncle of mine, William Power - born at Harrington's Lane, Barrack Street, Waterford on 28th April 1875. He was baptised in Ballybricken Church on 2nd May 1875. The sponsors at baptism were Joseph Meaney and Mary Power. The priest who officiated was Rev William Quealy and the baptismal stipend was 1/-. William Power's birth was registered on 6th May 1875 by Judith Power, present at birth. William's parents were William Power [born in County Waterford on10th November 1846 and died at Emmet Place in waterford City on 20th May 1918] and his first wife, Anne [nee Meany][date of birth unknown to me - she died 1st November 1883, age 38 years] William left home which was by then at Sallypark, Waterford, on 8th June 1890. By that time, his father was a signalman in the Waterford Limerick and Western Railway [later the Great Southern and Western Railway] and he had married a second time. His second wife, Mary Ellen Power [nee Power] was my grandmother. Little precise information is know about "young" William Power after he left home on 8th June 1890 at age 15 years. Family tradition is that he joined the Army and some elderly relations remember him in uniform up to the 1920s. I have, however, been unable to trace what Regiment [if any] he joined and a number of searches at the Public Record Office have failed to discover any records relating to him. Any help will be much appreciated. Dr Con Power
