Community surnames extracts from Seary's Names of the Island of Newfoundland, 1835 Voters Lists, 1864-65 Hutchinson 1871 Lovell's Directory, 1894-97 McAlpine's Directory, 1898 McAlpine's Directory, 1904 McAlpine's as well as some parish records and cemetery inscriptions.

There were names in these communities that were not picked up by Seary and I believe
that the some of the entries for the earlier Hr. Grace (HGRC) were surnames of these
Conception Bay communities

A couple of examples of why I believe this is as follows:

Barron/Barren (Holyrood) There is a James on the 1835 Voters List for Holyrood
and on the 1864-65 directory as a fisherman. Seary shows a James Barron or Barren of Hr.
Grace Parish, 1806 (NF. Archives HGRC)

Targate (Holyrood): There is a John Targate on the 1835 Voters List for Holyrood,
as well as on the 1864-65 directory and the Targate surname still appeared on the 1871 Lovell's,
although John was no longer listed. Seary shows a John Targate of Hr. Grace, 1813 (NF Archives HGRC)

Based on the above, I believe that one can safely assume that if this name appears to be a match
for one of your ancestors from the Conception Bay Centre area, ten chances to one, it is. The
people "up the bay" as it was called, used St. Paul's Anglican and Immaculate Conception Parish till they became a part of the parish of Brigus in 1833.

COSTELLO:		a surname of Ireland, MacOisdealbhaigh.  "Oisdealb 
			was the name of one of the sons of Gilbert de Nangle, 
			and this is the first example of a Normal family assuming 
			a Mac name. The use of the prefix O is erroneous, though 
			it does occasionally occur in 17th century records" 
			(MacLysaght).  Cottle suggests that Costello is proberly 
			"son of Jocelyn" in an Irish form.  See NANGLE.(MacLysaght , 
			Cottle). Traced by MacLysaght in Co. Mayo and formerly as 
			Costellow in Sussex by Guppy.
