    3. If anyone needs to look up an obscure placename in Ireland, this book has all, or most, older placenames; "The Master Book of Irish Placenames" by O'Laughlin. You can read it online here; https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=0fQl1Vq_Yd0C Click the "HOW TO READ" tab. Click "READ ON YOUR BROWSER. On my Firefox the first page of "A"s came up. You can use the arrows on either side of screen to go forward or back, or you can move the slider at bottom. If you want to save an image of the page, use a screen capture program. There are several free programs that do that. I use Screen Grab. For that program, go here; http://download.cnet.com/ScreenGrab/3000-2192_4-13469.html?tag=dre Double click the "Direct download link" below the green button. Click "SAVE FILE" to download the scrgrb11.zip file. Open your DOWNLOADS folder and install that program. (You'll need to EXTRACT files from that ZIP file first). After I open the program I minimize it to the taskbar, then when I'm ready to mark an area to capture I hit the F8 key.
