Hello, There likely were several men named James Costello living in County Clare in the 1800's. At least one lived in or near the townland of Derryhalla as shown by this baptismal reference: 1830-- "28th of Jan. was baptized Briget daughter to Patrick Halloran of Derry Halla and to Briget Dologhty his wife. James Costelloe and Margaret Costelloe were sponsors. James Meade." The LDS microfilm #0926096 "Parish Register, Diocese of Killaloe, Parish of Quin and Clooney contain baptisms from Jan. 4, 1816 to March 1, 1855 and marriages from Jan. 29, 1833 to Feb. 14, 1855. Pat Halloran and his wife Bridget Doloughty lived in Derryhalla. Their children were Mary Halloran (1828), Bridget Halloran (1830), Pat Halloran (1832), Mary Halloran (1834), Kitty [or Biddy] Halloran (1842), John Halloran (1845) and James Halloran (1848). Sponsors at these baptisms included John Dologhty, Nancy Russell, Nancy Doologhty (twice) [possibly the same person as Nancy Russell], James Costelloe, Margaret Costelloe, John McMahon, Peg Halloran, John Molony, Mary Molony and Bridget (L)ea(r)y [or Meany]. And we probably have another James Costello: 1834--"[Jan.] 19th Mary of (James?) Costelloe and Bridget Murphy. Mary Doolaghty. Derrynaguillan." Good luck on your search. Thor Conway
