Edmund Gennings was a 16th-century English Catholic priest who was executed during the English Reformation. Born in Lichfield in 1567, he initially served as a page for Richard Sherwood. Following his ordination in Soissons in 1590, he returned to England under the alias Ironmonger to conduct missionary work. After landing at Whitby and searching London for his brother, he was apprehended at Gray's Inn in November 1591. He was subsequently executed on 10 December 1591.
