Very few places in Ireland had house numbers (usually just cities or large towns) and most rural areas didn't have road names. In mid-1800s Griffith's Valuation listed properties and there were maps to go with them. After the printed version of Griffith's there are a series of valuation notebooks which follow properties in each townland recording changes to tenants, etc. with a series of different coloured inks. For the 6 counties of Northern Ireland the books are in PRONI (Public Record Office of Northern Ireland) and I think the ones for the rest of Ireland are in National Archives, Dublin.
