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.
