How nerdy is everyone else on this?

Found my Dad's side on a village that no longer exists in Ireland in the early 1800s near Tralee, and now I've got a bit lost figuring out where my lineage is on my Mum's side.

We found someone born in the late 1700s in Ireland who fucked off to Glasgow (where my Grandad was born - still assuming I can get a game for the Scottish national team in a couple years) but I can't find a location in Ireland other than a census in Scotland in 1851 where he put his birth as Ireland.

It's kinda fun all the same, aiming to take my parents to see some family history next year (they've somehow never been Ireland!?), but has anyone had any good luck finding records all that way back or does it need some specialist digging?

What are your origins? Found any mad 16th century witches?
