andthey met accidently in a Barbers shop How true I dont know
Regard Ann

[~MERLIN~]

So who does Sylvester belong to?

Hi Ann ,
Thanks for your clarification.
Just the other of the queries (which Merlin has asked again above

Thomas DEMPSEY had a son named SYLVESTER THOMAS?

SYLVESTER seems also to have disappeared? SUE {quote words of mirann}

So, can you address this one please.

Hi All
Thomas had a seven month old son named Sylvester When he arrived in Australia
Sylvester was a Dempsey family name .Hes not mentioned in his Mothers death notice
regards Mirann

Merlins O Dempseys look like they are right Father was Sylvester and Mother was Margaret
Murphy  Thomas was born16/04/1894  Patrick born 25/03/1896 Patrick (pat) left his wife in
Ireland But Thomas in both names I dont know maby it was a family thing

[sparrett]

Hi All,
I wonder if it would be revealing to see if there is any further information on WHYLMA DEMPSEY who is listed as Thomas's NOK on his war service record?

Hello, I've just discovered this site. Thomas Dempsey was my grand father and I am the daughter of his eldest, Margaret Eileen. This is amazing. I'm in Australia, and have contact with some of Patrick's grandchildren. Thomas's son, slyvester William, is my uncle Bill..

Did Sylvester return to Ireland?

[Hazeldene3939]

I think the Slyvester you are enquiring about was an older brother of Patrick and Thomas and do not believe he came to Australia
