No, wrought iron is not stronger than forged iron. Wrought iron has a very low carbon content. Forged iron is when heat up the iron and forge into something you want it to be. Mixing up the metal makes it stronger than just having one piece.

What happens when copper chloride is mixed with iron?

What type of metal are scissors made out of?
About Steel - Steel is an alloy -that is a melding of two or more different ingredients. And in the case of tool steel it is a combination of Iron and Carbon. Pure Iron, also known as "Wrought Iron" is no good for knife making because it is very soft and very brittle. But, when we add a certain amount of carbon to the Iron it becomes much stronger and much tougher! So, Steel is a combination of Iron and Carbon. And the big thing to know here is that the amount of carbon that is added to the steel makes a big difference!
What is the difference between Wrought and forged Fittings?

How does lightweight iron patio furniture compare to real wrought iron?
Wrought iron furniture is made from iron that has been forged and shaped to create the various elements of the furniture. Cast iron is made by molding the pieces and then constructing the finished furniture. Iron is iron; there is no such thing as "lightweight" iron. The iron can be cast thinner than wrought iron, but wrought iron can be very delicate if the blacksmith wants to make it so. Wrought-iron is usually more durable and heavier than cast pieces, but not always. Check for construction and the number of welds, and rely on the manufacturers' or artists' guarantees of quality.
Why is bronze better than iron for making swords?

Why is cast iron brittle?
Any metal that is cast is inherently weaker than metal products that are drop forged. It all has to do with the molecules in the iron. In a cast product, the molecules are random and haphazard. In a drop forged product, the molecules are 'forged' to conform to the shape of the object, thus making it stronger. The best and most expensive hand tools you can buy are drop forged.
