Hi,
Thank you for your message.
Do you know if the family were Roman Catholic or Anglican?
According to the New Ross parish the Catholic Church there is the Church of St. Michael and St. Mary. Here is a link to the website:

The irishtimes website can be very useful when looking at Catholic records. It gives an overview of what records are available in specific parishes. To see what is available in New Ross parish follow this link:
If the family followed the Church of Ireland, you can see what churches are in the parish at the following link:
http://ireland.anglican.org/information/dioceses/parish/15780
For information on Church of Ireland records check: http://ireland.anglican.org/about/42 and http://www.nationalarchives.ie/.
I hope that this is helpful.
