Hello Suzanne,
You have done tremendous work on your family tree. You seem to have gotten back to Patrick Foley.
I have looked at the www.rootsireland.ie site and searched for a Patrick Foley born Co. Waterford approx 1801.
I only found one record for that timeframe which can be seen and purchased if you wish on this site. Registration is free and you'll pay babout €5 to view and print the record.
As you don't have any parents' names it will be quite difficult to verify if you are following the correct man. As you may know church records usually start around 1820 or 1830 , but as Waterford is a very old city their records go back to the turn of the century. You may have reached a stage when you just can't go back any further.
Kind Regards,
Anne

Thank you, Anne.
Perhaps I can get Patrick's & Allie's marriage licence in Canada which might have the parents listed. I would love to find cousins who might add to the family history. I have seen some information on Ancestry.com.
Marriage to Alida Taaffe Age: 31 St John, Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada
This is taken from St. Malachy's Parish Book: Archives of the Diocese of St. John, N.B., Canada
On the seventeenth of September, eighteen hundred and thirty two, after dispensing in the publication of banns, Patrick Foley and Ally Taaffe.
For now,
Suzanne
