John's parents were Hugh Dempsey & Ellen Quinn. Father Hugh was a boot/shoemaker and the family lived at various places in Aghadowey Parish including Glenkeen (1873) & Mullahinch (1901) & Drumeil (1911). Hugh's parents were Mark Dempsey & Elizabeth Vincent.

John Dempsey was born at Glenkeen-

Added- did John & Esther actually marry?
John is listed as single in 1911-

Daughter Sarah born at Mullahinch later in the year-

Joseph & William James both born at Demone.

Thank you, I am unsure if John & Esther married.  Esther was my great-grand mother & unfortunately all the information we have on John is the birth certificate for my grandmother Sarah.

Canada / Robert John Allen

Hello,

I'm trying to find information on my great uncle Robert John Allen.

Robert John was born May 11, 1902 in The Grange, Loughgall, Co. Armagh:

I have found an outbound passenger for a Robert Allen aged 22 in March 1926 out of Belfast, from Tullygarden, Richhill, Co Armagh aboard the Alaunia. The incoming record into Canada indicated he was headed for Toronto (subsidized passage paid by the Ontario government). 

This is all I have been able to find at the moment, when he left the family home to travel to Canada the family never heard anything further from him, we don't know if he stayed in Toronto or move on.

Thanks,
Denise

Where have his parents and wife's name come from - is he on census with parents/wife?

Hi,
John is listed on the 1901 census with his parents Hugh & Ellen.
Esther is my great-grand mother, we have no further information other than the birth certificate which shows her as being nee Thompson.

Hi,
I'm trying to find information on John Dempsey, born 1875 to Hugh & Ellen Dempsey.
John married Esther Thompson from Demoan, Pontzpass.  I can find three children registered.
The first Sarah in 1911, Joseph in 1916 & William in 1919.
It was noted on Josephs birth certificate that John was a soldier in France.
I can find the birth certificates for the children, but have been unable to find birth/death or marriage certificate for John.
Thanks,
Denise
