    Family History Researcher
    • Family beliefs say the POWERS family came from Killaloe County Clare (as r eported by Thomas H. Ryan, grandson of Martin Powers, in his book entitl ed "The History of Outagamie County" published in 1911, in the biograp hy of his father Daniel Ryan who married Winnifred Powers, daughter of Mar tin Powers.)
      1845-1854 Boston "State" Lists of index passenger arrivals (Power/s) Fi lm # 0205873 checked, no apparent matches.

      About that time frame from another traveller "Set out from Killaloe on Wed nesday the 25th of May 1853, arrived at Dublin at the hour of 10 of o'clo ck at night we took the Steemer for Liverpool (arrived there) the next d ay about 2 o'clock in the afternoon and arrived in Liverpool about 3 o'clo ck on the Morning following. The fare to new york was from 4 pounds sterl ing 10 shillings to 5 pounds sterling for each Adult. We had to take our c ourse to Quebeck at 3 pounds sterling 10 shillings for each Adult and ha lf price for the rest."
      1860 Census Buchanan, WI, page 247; Listed living with wife Mary and t wo children, Patrick and Mary, Listed age as 64, born in Ireland, occupati on as Farmer. Living next door to Richard Powers
      March 2002 Response for information on the Powers and Cox families from the County Clare Hertigage Centre at Corofin, County Clare; The Powers or Power name was relatively strong in County Clare during the 19th century, their Master List of Baptisms records 146 families with that name. No record of a marriage was found in County Clare church records, although many parishes church books do not start until later in 1800's. The Church Registers for Baptisms in the Parish of Ogonnelloe do not start until 1832 and are riddled with gaps and ommissions, however one possible baptism was found for a Mary Powers born 5/03/1840, daughter of Martin, no mothers name and family resided in an area known as Bealkelly. The Cox family also lived in Bealkelly. The neighboring Parish of Killaloe Church Registers do not start until 1828 and no Baptisms were found. The Tilthe Applotment Books for the area are dated in 1827, however no Martin Power/Powers is listed as owning or leasing land in the Killaloe or Ogonnelloe area. This of coarse does not mean he did not live in the area, but that he held no titheable property (agricultural land) (He possibly had a trade or occupation outside of farming) The 1855 Land Records also show no record of a Martin Powers (he possibly had already immigrated according to family beliefs)
      In the 1855 Griffith's Valuation of the area of Bealkelly - Purdon, all of the land appears to be owned by Simon Purdon, with many names listed as leaseholders or tenants. Many of the same names that settled in the Hollandtown area, such as Clune, Farrell, Cox and O'Brien.
