In 1837, Samuel Lewis's Topographical Dictionary of Ireland described Kiltrisk like this:
KILTRISK, a parish, in the barony of GOREY, county of WEXFORD, and province of LEINSTER, 6 ½ miles (S.) from Gorey, on the river Awen-o-varra, and two miles from the Eastern coast; containing 690 inhabitants. This parish comprises 2971 statute acres, as applotted under the tithe act, and chiefly under tillage. ...
It is a rectory, in the diocese of Ferns, forming part of the union of Leskinfere and of the corps of the treasurership of Ferns cathedral: the tithes amount to £126, out of which £23. 1. 6. is paid to the perpe-tual curate of the recently formed ecclesiastical district of Glascarrick, which see. In the R. C. divisions it is part of the union or district of Ballygarret.
