Power Family

[Wexfordskid]

Hi there, just doing some research for a friend and I am finding next to impossible to get any information.

There is very limited knowledge within his family of his family tree and there is no one currently alive that could help him. Here is the information I have (and all that he has)  :

His father was born in 1930 by the name of William James Power he was born in Co. Wexford to William Power and Mary Anne Carty. His father William Power was apparently born in Dun Laoghaire Co. Dublin(unknown year)  and his mother was from Wexford (again unknown year of d/o/b). And after that the only information is that Williams father was born in Co. Carlow. No other names or dates are known.

Any information of any kind would be very helpful. Thank you very much.

Is this the family in the Irish 1911 census?

Thanks for that. I'm not sure to be honest but it does look about right doesn't it?
