Looking for any information on Bridget Power and George Paul.

Hi Dianne

Just a  quick response without any information about Bridget & Paul but just to say that they had another child before they left Ireland. His name was George too and he was baptised in Oct 1835 in Fermoy.

Sorry, concentrating too much on changing format, hit the Post Button, Mary's Bap attached. Afraid that is all fdor now and I am doubtful of finding  George Snr, but will continue looking.

Will get back to you if I find anything but already have searched extensively. Children both Baptised in Fermoy.

Dear Frank,

Apologies for my slow response to your welcome information.  We have been away, just catching up on things now.  It's very good of you to take the time to look into my Irish ancestry, much appreciated.  Sadly poor little George must have died prior to the Paul family emigrating to Australia.  As you'll be aware, so frustrating regarding the absence of any details of George Paul Snr. and Bridget Power.  A John Power was one of the witnesses at their wedding at Fermoy in October 1832, perhaps Bridget's brother or father.  The other witness was Mary Riordan.  The ship's passenger records in 1837 show George's occupation as Shoemaker and Gardener, Bridget's as House Servant.  They had children in Australia but Bridget died at quite a young age.  George remarried and had more children, he became a landholder and an inn keeper.

Thank you again.

Regards, 

Dianne
