I'm looking for information on the family of Vincent Power of Little Harbour Placentia Bay. His wife's name was Caroline. I'm specifically searching for information on earlier generations, ie, his parents, grandparents etc.
Thanks

Hi: My father's name was Vincent Power and he was born in Hr. Buffett, P.B. His father's name was Joseph and his mother's name was Mary King. His grandfather's name was Thomas Power and grandmother was Anne Whiffen. I'm trying to find out where they originated. Is this the same family? A different Vincent but maybe related. My father was born in 1918. My email address is kaydonovan@nl.rogers.com.

Hi. It's very coincidental that I was checking out the family of Thomas Power for a possible connection. I'll email to you the info that I've collected so far as it may help you even if there's no relationship to me. I suspect that my grandfather (vincent) may have been a brother of thomas.

Hi: Thx for info. This is what I know of Little Hr. Powers: In the 1945 census it shows Vincent, wife Caroline, sons Rafield, Vincent, Aloysius, Wiliam and Leo. Don't know if this is any good for your search, but I'll keep digging and let you know if I can find any connection. Also in the 1904 census for Hr.
Buffett it shows a Peter Power, a Joseph Power and a William Power, all fishermen. My grandfather was a Joseph Power and I'm not sure if this is the same man. Thx once again for your input. K.

Since my last message have found out that Thomas Power (my great grandfather) married Anne Whiffen on 8 Oct. 1864. We may be talking bout the same family. Hoping to find out more info when I can get out to the Rooms. I don't know yet what part of PB these Powers came from but hopefully will find that out. Thx once again.....Kay
