Dempsey Family Reunion

My Father-in-law was the 2nd of 10 children of Frank and Marguerite Dempsey.  We just had a big family reunion for descendants of Frank and Marguerite and had a pretty good turn out and family came from all over the country to attend.  I am the resident genealogist of the family (even though I married into the family!) and supplied everyone with the information that I have so far.
