You can get the Griffith's index by going to failteromhat.com and search by name, parish, or both. MacLysaght's Surnames of Ireland is available in paperback and well worth it. Another good publication is Mitchell's New Genealogical Atlas of Ireland, as it shows all the civil and religious parishes, as well as the registration districts. Grenham's Tracing Your Irish Ancestors is great. Finally, the Irish Family History Foundation site is very helpful (irish-roots.ie).
