Urlingford, Ireland history in the 1800's

HI everyone, I am wondering if there is anywhere that I can look to read about the life in Urlingford, Ireland during the 1800's. I am interested in that area as it appears that my ancestor worked for a family who lived there. The family that she worked for appear to be grocers. They had servants etc. I would like to know about the local life in the mid to late 1800's and wondering if someone has written a book or have any photos of that area in that time. Anything would be appreciated. Thank you.Anne
