(O')Hanlons in Irish Directories

Commercial directories appeared in Britain, Ireland and the USA towards the end of the 1700's. Several very popular volumes were compiled in Ireland during the nineteenth century, many of which have survived to this day. These typically list the main businesses and prominent citizens for a given area, and in some cases include background information on the town itself.

Name and townland spellings are shown as they were found in the records.
