Answer 1

I know Macroom. It's on the main road from Cork to Killarney. You could probably find it on Google Maps quite easily.

Answer 2

for maps going back to the 1720s, try these sites (especially the second one).

And they are free.

[EDIT] for more results, type www.google.ie into your search bar and do an image search for maps macroom or maps cork.

Answer 4

I haven't found a link to any maps but this is the link to the Macroom branch of Cork County Library, they should have a reference librarian or books on the local area which could be accessed or they may be able to put you in touch with someone in the National Archives:

This site has Ordnance Survey maps dating back to the first one in 1829 - a little after the time you're in and it costs money to view the maps:

This gives the address of the Macroom Historical Society which is based at the Macroom Folk Museum
