Family: Costello

Lieut Col Con 'William 'John-Jack Bill' William Walter' Costello researched and compiled a magnificent 21 page document on his Costello Family Ancestry. This is his document 'Descendants of Walter Costello'. He also constructed a seven page Costello Family Tree document. Con worked in Military Intelligence and it shows. While reading these documents you can see that Con utilised his Intelligence experience and expertise.  It took enormous resource to research and compile these documents in such detail.

Sean 'Jerry' Costello (Sadly RIP recently) shared both documents with me when Sean and his lovely wife Sheila met with Nora Mai Fleming, Humphrey and John McMahon and I at Killarney during the summer-fall of 2014. He also shared his treasured picture of the Wedding Gathering on the Wedding Day of his Parents, Jerry Costello and Christina McCarthy on September 1942. 

From Con's documents we see that in 1853 GL0 Walter Costello is recorded at Shanawillen. Shanawillen (Sean Mhuileann - Old Mill) is a Town land near Kilsarcan and Ranaleen.

Information courtesy of David Costello, Castleisland (David Costello Footwear 72 Main St Castleisland) and Humphrey McMahon Kilsarcan - Walter Costello who Md Ms Coffee and Died 1876 at Shanawillen had moved to Shanawillen from Tylagh, O'Brennan, BallyMacElligott circa 1820's. There are no Costello Family Names recorded at Kilsarcan at the Tithe Applotment time circa 1827. Con ‘Jeremiah’ Costello captures this in his 21 page Document: ‘Descendants of Walter Costello’. ( Refer: Family Costello).

Information courtesy of Humphrey McMahon Kilsarcan, The first Costello at Kilsarcan was  the father of GL2 Jack Bill Costello, that was GL1 William Costello D1882 who Md Julia McCarthy. GL1 William Costello moved from Shanawillen to farm the land there at Kilsarcan that was previously rented by the Lyons family.
