Hello everyone,  My mother was a Costello.  My family originated in Tipperary and ended up in Canada.  Reading your posts and very interesting.  I know of a Costello family in Canada (think they would be nephews of my g g grandfather.

A John Costello married a Catherine Nolan here in Canada.  They of course had a son named William.  All of their kids have the middle name Nolan (William Nolan Costello etc). 

I would really be interested in EARLY generations if anyone has them from back in Ireland.

My g g grandfather was John Costello born 1811 he married Catherine Gleeson in Ireland but do not have much info. for this generation.  Heard it was in Puckane Tipperary at St. Patrick's church but have not been able to verify.  Would really be interested in anything.  His son William Costello is my great grandfather but ended up in Canada as well.  I have next generations or at least some of the info. and these are in Canada.

I think the Costellos and Nolans in Canada are related to my family but distantly again, think the g g grandfathers may have been brothers.

However wondering if your Costellos and Nolans are related to the Canada Costellos and Nolans.  I bet they are.  Which would mean we could be distantly related as well.
