Inkerman is a Canadian parish in Gloucester County, New Brunswick.[2] The local service district of the same name, which included only part of the parish, was incorporated into the Regional Municipality of Grand Tracadie–Sheila on July 1, 2014,[3] causing some misunderstanding of its status.

The parish is named after the Battle of Inkerman in the Crimean War.[4]
