Merrin is apparently a rare name in Wexford.
John Merrin lived in Glenroe, Clongeen, according to Griffith's Valuation [1]. His brother, James Merrin, lived in the Parish of Tintern in Saltmills.
James' son, John A Merrin, was my great-great-grandfather. He came to New South Wales from County Wexford in Ireland.
