Thanks everyone for your help. Would there be any christening records?

The Henry/Maria wedding was 1866 - Joseph was born in 1863. Mary died 1911 (as widow of Michael!!) so I do not think the Henry 1901 will be the one.

No trace 1871 - just re-checked and no other Dempsey's in Colne in 1881. Also no death for a Henry - I am puzzled why they came to Colne if no other family there.

Mary gives County Meath as her birth place on one census & Cavan on another - the children all quote Dublin.

Thankyou - yes I have the Michael/Mary Judge details, and in that family in 1816 was another Felix Dempsey. My main problem is that Joseph, Mary Ann & Felix all give Henry as their father on their marriage certificates - yet when Joseph registered his mother's death the certificate says widow of Michael Dempsey. Only those 3 children ended up living in Colne, Lancashire, England with their Mother Mary. They appear in 1881 when Mary & Joseph live together, Mary Ann is in service but no sign Felix. In 1891 Mary, Mary Ann & Felix live together. Looks like a problem I cannot solve..!!

I am no nearer with my Dempsey research - the only Felix recorded is in 1865 at 33 Liffey Street, Dublin N. to Michael Dempsey & Mary Judge - yet Felix's marriage & death certs. give his DOB as 1869.
His marriage gives his father as Henry Dempsey, Cabinet Maker, decd. - as do the marriages of his siblings, Joseph (1863) & Mary Ann (1867). Yet his mother's death cert. gives her as widow of Michael.

I have received the marriage cert. for Joseph Dempsey b. 1863 Dublin - he too lists Henry Dempsey as his father. This means Joseph, Mary Ann & Felix were all the children of Henry Dempsey & Mary. So who is the Michael Mary's son Joseph put on his mother's death cert. He too was a cabinet maker - wonder if she married Michael after Henry died, then he died too?? Wonder if he is the father of the Felix born 1865?? Wonder if that Felix died?? - A lot of wondering going on!!
