I am researching my Costello relatives who migrated from Mayo or Roscommon to Abbeydorney, County Kerry. I have the history (brief) from Norman times to settling in Mayo or Roscommon. I found and visited the first castle built by MacCostello near Ballyshannon, Donegal.

Re: Costello's of Ballykilcline
I am interested in the Costellos because I'm<br>looking for my gg grandmother whose maiden name,<br>I think, was Costello. <p>Mary Ann Parsons was my g grandmother. The records<br>unearthed by a genealogist in this country show <br>that she was born in Ireland in June of 1830, <br>immigrated to the U.S. in 1852, married John Carney<br>on July 1, 1861, had several children, including <br>my grandmother, and died October 5, 1920 in <br>Charleston South Carolina.<p>Her death certificate shows her mother's name as <br>Bridget Parsons (no maiden name given) and her <br>father's Christian name was unknown. Is it possible <br>that you would have information concerning her <br>parentage? My father believes he remembers that <br>she was somehow connected to Mayo County. If <br>there is a probability that you can help me, I <br>would greatly appreciate it.
