Link: Co. Dublin towns & street listings, 1848
« on: Monday 01 February 10 15:40 GMT (UK) »
I've been able to scan the county Dublin section of Thom's Directory of 1848, and have processed the town descriptions through OCR. These provide information on the location, some history, details of principle buildings etc

  link : http://www.rootschat.com/links/07z1/

I also hope to add the images from the street listing sections for these towns over the next week or two.
