Kilmore Baptisms in Wexford Town, 1851 - 1893
The records below have been extracted from three sources. The main source is the "Births in the Wexford Workhouse" book, held by the Catholic Church as part of their parish records. The book, more accurately, shows catholic baptisms in the Workhouse. The book commences in May 1851 and finishes in October 1893 and a complete listing of all births, with a claimed Kilmore connection, has been reproduced on this page. Please note that until 1859 no record of address was recorded in the book so we are unable to know if any of those births were of Kilmore origin. You will note that the majority of births, taking place in the Workhouse, were illegitimate.
The second and third, less comprehensive sources of
records for this page arethe Wexford Town parish registers - Catholic and
Church of Ireland. I have not checked these records in any thorough way but,
alternatively, reproduce here any records which I have discovered by accident.
It is worth noting that the majority of Wexford Town parish records do not
show any address.
