Dempsey family tree
As you will see when you read further, I have lots of missing infor-mation. Dates of birth and death, names of wives and children, all need to be filled in. Now according to my Grandfather John Edward Dempsey (†) a "James Dempsey, had at least four and possibly five sons and several daughters. They married in the community with the Kellys, the McDonnells and the Applegates." Unfortunately he does not say which community so as to give me another reference point for my research. If anyone has any information, please leave me a message at my Contact me page.1st Generation
