NameBrigida ("Bridget Power") Power was also known as Bridget English.
Note
Reference NumberShe had reference number 20342.
BirthShe was born in 1852 at Dungarvan, Waterford, in Ireland.
ChristeningShe was christened on 30 January 1852 in Dungarvan, Waterford, Ireland.
ResidenceIn 1871 Brigida ("Bridget Power") Power lived in Strand Street, Dungarvan.
MarriageShe married Johannes ("John English") English on 29 January 1871 at Waterford & Lismore Parish, Dungarvan, Waterford, Ireland, in St. Mary's, Dungarvan, Waterford, Ireland, Wedding took place in a Roman Catholic Chapel and RC Parish - I see from the register that the witnesses were Michael English and Jane Power (there is another name, maybe Lucella I cannot decipher the christian name, might also be Lucilla, Linda or Loretta), but she will possibly be a bridesmaid.

There is the mention of "Strand Street" ... maybe that is where Johannes lived, I don't know ... buy Angela advises that:-

"John is stated as living at Strand st, Dungarvan which is just around the corner from St Mary's. John's brother (My gggrandfather) Patrick lived on O'Connell st , Dungarvan. Michael lived in Dungarvan for a while but then settled in Waterford City. Nearly all his children moved to England at various stages. ". The best man was Michael English.1
Her daughter Maria Brigida English was born on 25 November 1871 in Dungarvan, Waterford & Lismore, Ireland.
BiographyBridget (on my grandmother Frances English's Birth Certificate) was illiterate and left her mark in lieu of her signature on that document.

Oh yes, Barmouth Street is between the Gas Works and Great Howard Street.
Her daughter Frances English was born on 30 January 1875 in 22 Barmouth Street, St. Martin, Liverpool, England.
Her daughter Elizabeth English was born on 11 March 1877 in Liverpool, England.
Her son John Edward English was born on 3 August 1879 in Walton, Liverpool, England.
Note. Brigid is recorded as a ship baker's wife, husband absent at sea.

We know that she has a cousin Edward O'Brien (#23020) born circa 1855 in Ireland. He may well be the son of an uncle who is a brother of her mother, Ellena O'Brien.

Brigid also has a niece Mary Power (#23008) born about 1865 also in Dungarvan, Waterford, Ireland. She may be the daughter of a brother of her father Thomas Power.

Of course, Mary may be the wife of a nephew being the son of her husband Thomas Power's brother. Hard to say at this stage.

Her daughter Dora English was born on 7 October 1882.
Her daughter Jenny ("Jennie") English was born on 19 October 1888 in Walton, Liverpool.
DeathBrigida ("Bridget Power") Power died about May 1905 in Liverpool, England.
BurialShe was buried on 10 May 1905 in the Ford Roman Catholic Cemetery, Sefton, Liverpool, Lancashire, England, We know that Brigida and John and their children were Roman Catholics. There is an entry for a burial in the Ford Cemetery recorded in the Liverpool, England, Catholic Burials, 1813-1985 for a Brigid English aged 52 years in May 1905.

We know that Brigida and John and their children were Roman Catholics. There is an entry for a burial in the Ford Cemetery recorded in the Liverpool, England, Catholic Burials, 1813-1985 for a Brigid English aged 52 years in May 1905.

The Ford Cemetery was also known as the Ford Roman Catholic Cemetery and the Liverpool Roman Catholic Cemetery in the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton , Merseyside, England.
None of the graves in the following sections A, AD, B, BZ, S, SV or X have any headstones or markers as these sections are known as 'public' sections in which burials may be of unrelated persons in the same grave.
Her husband Johannes ("John English") English died in 1926 in Liverpool, England.
