Masterson -Taunton, MA and Ireland

Hi, I am researching my Masterson roots. My great grandmother was Mary Jane Masterson who was born in Ireland. Her parents were Matthew and Catherine (Martin) Masterson. Catherine Masterson came from Ireland to Taunton, Massachusetts with her chilren, William, John, Lawrence, Mary Jane and Robert about 1890. Daughter Mary Jane married Allen George Bowen.
I see many Mastersons from the Taunton, MA area and would love to know if any are related. I know son William's branch moved to Worcester, MA. My question is: Where in Ireland did these Mastersons come from? My Mom said Kilkenny, but I'm not so sure.
Thanks.
Pat
