East Shelmaliere, also called Shelmaliere East, (Irish: Síol Maoluír Thoir) is a historical barony in southwest County Wexford, Ireland.[1][2]
Baronies were mainly cadastral rather than administrative units. They acquired modest local taxation and spending functions in the 19th century before being superseded by the Local Government (Ireland) Act 1898.[3][4]
