Directories are an excellent source of information though they usually provide only names and addresses of individuals living in a particular city or town. In Dublin, city directories began being published in the 18th century. Town directories began somewhat later on and have continued sporadically since then.

The LDS Church has copies of many Irish Directories -- see their holdings for more specifics.
