Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

I located the 1853 marriage record for Margaret and John in Oylegate parish. See below.

I also located six baptismal records Martin 1855 John 1857 Mary 1859 William 1861 William 1862 Anastasia 1864 Looks like the first William died young. By 1864 the family was living in Wexford town. See Anastasia's record below.

Thank you very much appreciate your follow up. This is by far the family information that I have revieved to date and I am sure that it traces the William Power my grandfather. Do you have any suggestions about how i might contact the descendants of the the other siblings listed?

 

Thanks again

 

Tony Power.

Tony:

I would suggest autosomal DNA testing. You might match up with a descendant of one of the other siblings. Power is a very common surname in Wexford.
