The Traceys of Derry can trace their history back to the beginning of historical records, as Derry formed part of the territory of the Cenél Eóghain.

24th September 1731 Old Bailey - Ordinary's Account

…Three Men, viz. Robert Irwin, Richard Davis, and William Tracey, were by the Jury found Guilty of Capital Offences, and receiv'd Sentence of Death accordingly…Richard Davis and William Tracey, of St. Paul's Covent-Garden… William Tracey about 50 Years of Age, of honest Parents, but had no Education at School. When he was a Boy of seven or eight Years of Age, as he said, he was with his Father in the Seige of Londonderry, where he continu'd till the City was reliev'd. His Father was Poor and did not put him to any Trade; when of Age, he serv'd as a Soldier for several Years in Ireland, Flanders and Spain. Afterwards being weary of the Army, he came to London, married a Wife and kept House in and about Hedge-lane, for Twentyfive Years past, and said he serv'd sometimes as Watchman , and that he was well known in the Parish, and several People in the Neighbourhood could testify, that he carried himself well, kept a good House and was of a good Character. He kept a Fruit-stand , and sometimes drove a Barrow about the Streets, and his Wife and he liv'd well and bred up a good Family of Children, by following that Business. He let out his House to such Lodgers as he could get, and said, he never knew any of them Dishonest, but those who were taken up on this Occasion, in company of one of whom he died. He reflected bitterly (and I believe unjustly) on a certain Gentleman. He confess'd that he had been a great Swearer and Drinker, and very cruel and barbarous in abusing his Wife, whom he call'd his Poor Woman, in a loving Way. He profess'd himself Penitent, but was grosly Ignorant in Religion. At First he gave out, that he was of our Communion; but the Day before he died, he own'd himself of another.... Tracey said, he believ'd in Christ, repented of his Sins, and died in Peace with all the World…

Robert Irwin, 57 Years of Age, of honest creditable Parents, in the County of Fermenagh, had good Education… his Father rais'd a Troop of Horse, and join'd the brave Iniskilling Men, and was one of those Officers, who march'd to the Relief of London-Derry: At this Time Robert was about 17 Years of Age, and attended his Father in the Expedition, and was One of them, who, in Company with his Father, defended the City, till King William sent them seasonable Relief, when they were reduc'd to the greatest Extremity; and at last, the Enemy fearing the King's Arrival in that Kingdom, were oblig'd to raise the Seige…

Close copy bill, Rev. John Tracy, Moybeg, Co. Londonderry, husband of the late Elizabeth Tracy (née Wilson), against John Wilson, regarding a dispute over Richard Wilson's will of 1711. D1018/G/11

“…He went and settled in an obscure village called Moybeg, township of Cootinaglugg, in the parish of Kilchronaghan, in the barony of Loughinshallin, in the county of Londonderry. In this obscure district, the names of which almost bid defiance to enunciation, his second son Adam, the subject of this Memoir, was born, either in the year 1760 or 1762, most probably the former, but neither the year nor the month can be ascertained. He was baptized in the parish church by his uncle, the Rev. John Tracy, the Rector, who had married his mother's sister (MacLeans of Mull Scotland). On application to the late worthy incumbent, the Rev. Mr. Bryan, to obtain a copy of the baptismal register, the following answer has been obtained: — ‘The archives of the church have been carefully searched, but no register during Mr. Tracy's incumbency has been found; none having been kept during that period; or if kept, since irrecoverably lost.’
As Mr. Tracy died sometime between 1760 and 1762, and Adam Clarke was baptized by him, he must have been born within that period.

It may not be improper to say a few words here of his brother, who was born about three years before him. He was called Tracy, at the instance of his uncle the Rev. J. Tracy, already mentioned; who, having no child, promised to be at the expence of his education, &c. Such promises are rarely fulfilled ; but this pledge would probably have been redeemed, had Mr. Tracy lived, for he had already taken the child to his own house, but dying shortly after, the young lad, already spoiled by indulgence, was restored to his parents…”

15 February 1890 (N) Death

The death is announced of the Rev. Michael Tracey, P.P. V.F., of Dungiven. The senior members of the community in Desertmartin, where he first officiated, and many more of the people of Derry, where he ministered afterwards for about eighteen years, will hear of the event with feelings of unfeigned respect for his memory. Born in the year 1826 in Lower Badony, he became an ecclesiastical student of the Brow of the Hill Seminanry, under the presidency of Father Patrick Campbell. He passed thence with credit to the college of Maynooth. Having served in Desertmartin as curate for some years, the late reverend prelate Dr. Kelly brought him to the City of Derry, where he officiated for about eighteen years. He then appointed him to the important charge of Dungiven parish about the year 1876. After the death of Father Daniel Magee (who, with Rev. William M'Laughlin, was his colleague in the ministry in Derry City), he succeeded him as Master of Conference of the county Derry Deanery. Under his pastorate in Dungiven, which extended over thirteen years, the new church of St. Patrick was erected cl;ose to the town on the noble site procured by his predecessor, Very Rev. Father Dan Mooney, and of this undoubtedly fine building Father Tracey was justly proud, being heard now and then to put forward its claim to be the second best Catholic Church in this diocese of Derry.

Tommy Tracey

Among the men who talked little about their wartime experiences was Tommy Tracey who fought in Burma as a member of the King's Own Scottish Borderers. A quiet, softly-spoken and gentle-mannered individual, he did not even count his war service as having been of any great value. His medals remained in the boxes in which they arrived and his real pride resided in the Great War medals of his uncle, with whom he had lived in Glasgow before joining the Army. But speaking about his wartime experiences for a BBC Radio Ulster programme in early 1989, he, too, touched on some of the things that remained in his mind about the aftermath of war. Wounded in the advance through Burma, Tommy Tracey had been hospitalized and was on his way back to rejoin his battalion when he heard that the war had ended:

We just couldn't believe it, couldn't believe it. I was getting set to go back, up to Burma again, to the battalion, but instead of that I went up to Peshawar, up to the Frontier. There [were] so many of the boys I'd come out with [who] had all gone, and I was still there. But I never thought I would have survived and I'm sure most of the fellas in Burma didn't think they were going to survive either.

When I was coming home altogether we used to sleep in hammocks on the boat. I couldn't sleep this night and I got up. I was sitting on the deck coming through the Indian Ocean, big moon, water lapping on the sides, and the first thing I heard was one of the crew putting on a record ... `Home, Sweet Home', Deanna Durban.

And as he recalled that long-ago night in the Indian Ocean, Tommy Tracey wept at the memory. His thoughts were back with the men who rest to this day in Burma, those fellow soldiers for whom there was to be no return to a home, sweet home.
