Catherine is Mariah's mother, and her husband Bernard dies 1871. We know she comes to the U.S., and dies 1896, and is buried in Holy Cross Cemetery in Brooklyn.
Both Ellis Island immigration records and U.S. census records at that time did not gather a lot of information.
This could be her, with her remaining family in the NY State census, 1892:
No street address provided, nor any of the info we see in later census (censii?).
Thomas ends up returning to Ireland. We know Katie (Catherine Dempsey Costello) returns briefly as well after she gets married.
John, Martin, and Katie are also buried with her at Holy Cross.
