Did Dempsey become Lucerne?

In August, 1909, Wyoming newspapers reported that a new town was to be established in Hot Springs County between Thermopolis and Kirby north of Owl Creek. It was to be named Dempsey, after Tom Dempsey, a local rancher. The town of Dempsey is never mentioned again but in 1910, the town of Lucerne is established on what appears to be the same location as the proposed town, Dempsey.
