Hello,
Love your website, it’s very useful. I’ve recently published “Education in Wicklow” which details schools all over the county prior to 1825. If you’d like a review copy for your website, let me know and I can post it over to you. Details here: http://www.wickloweducationhistory.org/ (including index to the book)
All the best,
Michael
