Hi Kirsty

Yes, they are the details as I know them. Now I know the South African connection. At least 1916 was correct.

Hi Kirsty
Actually I was wrong, Mary Davey was my great grandmother, your father Martin was my grandfather's John's  brother. All this generation seemed to have come to Queensland except one who remained in Ireland. I don't know much about Martin except he died in 1916 and my father, Hugh, thought he died in Africa. We could be way off the mark with this. I believe he had 2 daughters Addine and Irene. Is there ant accuracy in this?

Kathleen (Catherine) Costello married a chap named Pat Skelly in Brisbane and had children Ena, Kitty and Maggie, Mary married a chap named Cramer in Brisbane and had 3 girls, and Veronica (maybe Ellen) remained in Ireland and married a chap named O'Grady they had children Mick, Hugh, Martin and Pat. I believe the former Martin (Tom's son) was killed in South Africa. I never knew we had a Michael, maybe he was Tom Michael???

The reason nothing is available on John Costello was because the church at Doocastle and Dublin Registry were burnt down in the 1860s, this may have been the case for Pat and Tom as well.

Is there any information on Tom Costello and Mary Davy's siblings, I have nothing.

Also is there anything on the previous generation to Tom Costello?

Regards, Denis Costello, Brisbane

Tom and Mary's children were Patrick, John, Kathleen, Tom, Hugh, Mary, Martin and Veronica.

Do you have the correct Tom and Mary. I think Mary's name was spelt Davey not Davy. John was born in the 1860s, that's all I know and probably came to Australian in the 1880s.

Tom Costello married Mary Davey in Ireland in the 1800s and they are my great grandparents. They had a son named John who is my grand father. I have some information about Tom Costello but nothing about Mary Davey. Can anyone assist please?
