The children are Katherine Theresa born Feb 1879, Helen
(Nellie) born, Sep 1881, Ann born March 1882, Mary born November 1883, James Edward born October 4, 1886, and Elizabeth
(Bessie) born March 1888. They were all
born in San Francisco , California .
The first born daughter, Katherine Theresa, is mentioned in
the first census I have found of the family in California in 1880. I have wondered why after they married in
1877 in New York City they left and travelled
all the way to California . The Gold Rush was over by this time and the
transportation wasn’t easy. I will
research this some more.
I haven’t been able to find too much on Katherine. I found her obituary in the San Francisco
Chronicle Newspaper from www.genealogybanks.com
web site. I also found her mentioned in
the obituary of her sister Annie as the late Katherine Powers in 1941.
As you can see this obituary has a lot of information to
confirm the family relationships. It
mentions her sisters and brother and also an aunt.
I haven’t found the marriage record for Katherine and John
Powers yet. I did find a marriage record
for Katherine with a John D. Harloe and I am wondering if they misspelled the
last name Harloe to Powers or she married John Powers later after a divorce or
the death of John Harloe. I am thinking
it is the latter because Katherine is mentioned as Powers in two separate
obituaries one in 1938 and one in 1941.

I will be researching more on Katherine Mulreany Powers to find her
and her husband in a census or other newspaper articles.
