Dempsey

There appears TO ME to be much more data making Felix's father to be Michael Dempsey.

It's possible that Michael was baptised Michael Henry Dempsey or vice versa and hence this is where the confusion is lying.

Thoms of 1868 show a Michael Dempsey, furniture broker, at Lower Liffey Street.

This is the same address as the baptism for Felix Dempsey in 1865.

I wonder is their a relationship here seen the name Maria Owens on one of the other baptisms

So,

We have a Felix Dempsey whom was born to a Michael Dempsey and Mary Judge.

Michael Dempsey was the son of a Christopher Dempsey.

Here is Christopher's will from 1891 where he leaves his money to his son Michael.

Which makes THIS Michael still alive and in Dublin in 1891.

So, this is a CRUCIAL point IF you are 100% sure that YOUR Mary Dempsey ie Felix's Mum was in England by 1891 that means Felix CAN NOT be the son of Michael Dempsey and Mary Judge.
