At least two people have placed the Dempsey baptisms online for all to see for free. Christina Hunt has placed them at http://www.rootsweb.com/~irllex/dempbapt.htm This is a Laois/Leix Queen's board Arthur Dempsey will be placing the information on the Dempsey board, also at rootsweb I believe. Arthur, the URL, please? These records are worth a look if you believe you have any family in the Portarlington, Lea area of Laois (Queen's) even if they are not Dempseys. Ceck out the godparents. This is all of the information I have. I can not do lookups. I am not in Ireland. I do not have the full baptism records for the parish. Happy hunting.
