Paul, The first place to look would be Irish Census of 1901. If you're lucky they may all still be living with parents. Follow that up with 1911. Just Google "1901 census of Ireland". It links to both years. The next place to look is the Mormons new Family Search site. They have included a lot of post 1864 civil registrations for Ireland. No sure how far they extend for Wexford. Make sure you use Advanced Search and Exact Matches. I'm not sure about earlier Parish Records. Last time I looked, Wexford weren't on the Irish Family History Foundation site. Try Googling "Catholic Records for Ireland". You can click on the map and see what records are available and where to find them. That's assuming they are Catholic. You'll know that from the census.
