Suggest you search Ellis Island rcds for its rcds and rcds from other ports of entry to get precise DOB and possibly origins of these brothers.
I research the Irish Family History Foundation's database. It contains 12,000,000 surviving rcds for abt 65% of Irish counties. Rcds are increasingly sparse B4 1840, rare B4 1800.
Note 1 - Without a KNOWN parish, the chance of an ancestor's rcds NOT being in this database is AT LEAST 35%.
Note 2 - Only 1/2 of Co. Cork's rcds are in this database.
Note 3 - The RC church kept control over most parish rcds from Tipperary (north). These are ONLY available thru the Tipperary Family History Research center at a substantial fee (regardless of outcome).
For John Costello B 1846 (exact) in Galway west with a father's forename unknown, I found 2 B rcds. The father's names were John (Rahoon parish) and Patrick (Cummer parish).
Since I found the father's forename associated with Cummer parish, I looked for B rcds for the two brother's in the same parish (this may be a bad assumption)
For Thomas Costello B ???? in Cummer parish, Galway west, with a father's forename of Patrick, I found 1 B rcd in 1840.
For Michael Costello B ???? ditto, I found 1 B rcd in 1844.
These dates are different than the ones you listed. However, I can't find any matches using the father's name and Cummer parish for your ranges.
Google the Foundation's name to lead you to this database. Register, opt to be notified as rcds are added and browse. Pls post your search results to my genforum msg.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
