Place of migration
Migrated to/Born in USA
John Joseph Powers (1870?-1940) from Dungarvan (we heard) in his 1939 work Identification card from Brooklyn (Kings County) Lighting Company.
His siblings also emigrated to New York: Joseph, Richard, Anastasia. Their parents were Bridget Kane and Patrick Powers.
Siblings Edmund and Patrick either stayed or passed as children.
One baptism might have been in Kilmacthomas.....so hard to trace a Powers in Waterford from across the pond!
Thank you!
Ann Marie Lynch (another challenging surname to trace)!
