There are some Dempseys in Sunderland in 1911, but I can't check the details without paying (so I'll let you do that!)

Hi Carole,

don't know if you have their marriage details but there is a possibility on Family Search pilot

1880 Ballina, Mayo  - same references for Edward Dempsy and Eliza O'Flynn
