Eily,
I have an ancestor, Patrick Mangan, born about 1800-1813. His wife was Catherine Costello. I find baptisms for their children in Listowel, Co. Kerry. The children are: Ann bapt. 1827, John bapt. 1829, Mary bapt. 1831, Patrick bapt ? abt 1840-43, Daniel bapt abt 1840, Johannah bapt abt 1841, and Michael bapt 1843.
Only Patrick sr. and children Mary, Patrick jr, Daniel and Johannah are found in U.S. records. They emigrated about 1847. I assume Catherine Costello and the remaining children died either in Ireland, during the ocean voyage or early when they arrived in the U.S.
From a Herkimer Co., New York record I found Patrick sr's, death which gave his parents as Patrick Mangan and Ann Walsh (Welch). From your info it seems we may be related. Similar names were used for children and they are from Listowel.
Would like to exchange info. Thanks
