I visited Waterford in my student days- and those were nearly 60 years ago. Everyone was most kind, and of course everyone knew several Patrick Power families. I was hardly serious about family history and just wanted to see where it all began.
Now I am a beginner in Irish research, though half of my forebears are Irish.
Co. Waterford, or Port Láirge in Irish, is located in the south-east region of Ireland. We are a coastal county with many beautiful beaches and home to world famous Waterford Crystal. Our county town is Waterford and we have a population of approximately 114,000. We look forward to helping you connect with your ancestors’ place of origin.
