For years, I have been trying without success to definitively trace the records of my paternal great-grandparents, Matthew and Ellen Power of County Waterford. I have now found the following deaths on the website of Waterford County Council and I wonder if there may be any connection. [1] Matthew Power, a farmer of Knockinduff, died of senile decay on 22nd December 1875, age 80 years. His death was subsequently registered by his widow, Ellen Power, who was present at death. [2] Ellen Power, widow, of Knockinduff, died of senile decay on 11th November 1881, age 80 years. Her death was subsequently registered by Ellen Lynch, present at death. Incidentally, my grandfather, William Power, son of Matthew and Ellen Power, was born in County Waterford on 11th November 1846. I look forward to hearing from anybody who might know anything of the Matthew Power or the Ellen Power of Knockinduff, mentioned above. Thanks for your help. Dr Con Power
