  • Notes 
    • Margaret had very little education & I was told by my father shecould not read or write. May have meant had limited use of both ofthese. Believed in fortune tellers & palm readers even though her Catholicupbringing said that was a no - no.Birthdate could be 8/6/1869-- taken from family records kep byArthur and Margaret that hung in their living room. Map ofIreland with Coat of Arms shows a Power (no s) in Ireland. [1, 2]
