<< The Topographical Dictionary of Ireland, written by Samuel Lewis in 1837

is now on line at:

http://www.libraryireland.com/topog/index.php


I really recommend this for reading, especially if you know the area

where your ancestors orignated from in Ireland. Lewis describes the

civil parishes and larger towns in wonderful easy to understand

language. He also gives some history of the area, what churches are

located there, land marks etc.
