JUST found out my g-g-grands were married in this town in 1857. Suggestions for finding information about them and/or their families of origin?
THANK YOU!

Eileen,
There is a tree on Ancestry that suggest that Patrick died in January 1884 in Ballykerogue, Kilrossanty, Waterford, Ireland at age 64. I found the death record on Irishgenealogy (free website).
4816179.pdf (irishgenealogy.ie)
Ballykeroge Little Townland, Co. Waterford (townlands.ie)
Ballykeroge Big Townland, Co. Waterford (townlands.ie)
Per RootsIreland, Patrick and Brigid had other children in Ballykeroge, Kilrossanty, Kilmacthomas, Waterford, Ireland. Mother's name was Caine/ Kane- John 1864, Edmond 1868, James 1870, and Anastasia 1872.
Regard- Mary

In 1851, there were Powers living in Ballykeroge, as shown in Griffith's Valuation:

Note there's an Anastasia Power listed in Griffith's. It's of interest that Patrick had a daughter Anastasia; perhaps the one in Griffith's was his mother?
