History
St. Iberius church historically is only one of many churches that have stood within the boundaries of Wexford town over many centuries. Notably in 1661 Thoms Gilliver was Rector of St. Iberius, Ardcavan, Ardcolm, Ballybrenan, Killurin, Ballyheage and Ardcandrish but also held St. John's and St. Clement's and later St. Mary's St. Patrick's, and St. Michael's alias Feagh and Killaloge. In 1715 it is noted that St. Mary's and St. Patrick's were consolidated and in 1722 the parishes of Dryna, Maudlinstown, Killaloge, Ardcandrish, Kildavan and Rathaspeck were united to St. Patrick's and called St. Patrick's Wexford. St. Iberius Church was rebuilt in 1766.

Below is a list of Surnames transcribed by Marianne Young from the Baptisms Burials & Marriage Registers (Errors and omissions excused). The original registers can be viewed at the Representative Church Body Library, Dublin. Please note that at the time of the event many of the population were illiterate and the spelling of surnames was often the interpretation of the officiating cleric e.g. McEwen could be the same as McKeon.
Please note that the transcription of St. Iberius records is incomplete and this page will be updated as registers are completed. Because of the large number of names associated with this parish the surnames have been combined.
