While there were two families of Skrine in Co. Wexford in the 20th century they were not related in any way. The Skrine family of Ballrankin is the subject of this book. Details of the Skrine family of Butlerstown Castle can be found in the book about the Boxwells.
The Ballyrankin Skrine family came to Ireland in early 20th century when Walter Clarmount Skrine of Warleigh Manor, Somerset and his wife Susan decided to settle in Ireland.
