Ancestry from Ireland

I need help in finding my grandmother's relatives in Ireland..her maiden name was Elizabeth Rogers...in Ireland (Dublin) married name Adams (married in states 1930). She was born 9 March 1903 and passed away Aug, 1981. Her husbands name was Richard T. Adams. She was the youngest of 13 children and I believe the only one to come to states. She never mentioned names to me..but sang irish jingles and told me stories. She had 4 children..Mary, William and Richard and another who died at the age of 3 of pneumonia. To be honest, I never knew how big and how many counties where part of Dublin. I also know that in those days the parishes recorded the births...she was Protestant.
I was never privy to her background or family and would like to know (and I am sure that the second generation of Rogers from her is still in Ireland). I also believe her mother's maiden name may have been Taylor. Everyone, except for my siblings, has passed away, including both sets of grandparents. She was always the old fashioned rock of the family and she raised me since I was 6 yrs old. I am 46 yrs old now. I would loved to some how reach her relatives.
I am hoping someone out there can lead to at least to starting point for me to go on. I don't know how many Protestant parishes there are since their are so many counties. Nor do I know the predominate Newspaper in Dublin to put an ad in. Any leads and help would be deeply appreciated.

Thank you
