There's no specific Wexford site.

I gave someone else pointers here:

You could definitely get in touch with the Wexford County Library. County Libraries have usually got copies of the censuses for 1911/1901 - you will need an address or townland to look up though as they'll be microfilm copies.

Hi Kennic,

my Doyle's are from Solsborough/Enniscorthywith O'Neill's and Cowmans from Kiltealy and Askinvillar. Researching family history in Wexford is a pain. One resource is the 1901 census info at :

http://www.leitrim-roscommon.com/1901census/census.shtml

and yes, it does carry Wexford info despite the URL names.
