The Traceys of Galway can trace their history back to the beginning of historical records, as Galway formed part of the territory of the Sil Anmchadha. The following place name is in Galway: Turloughtrassa Cross (Turlach Treasaigh) The cross of Turlogh Trassa, is a cross roads NW of Caherweelder townland in the civil parish of Killeely.

 

1270 Athenry Dominican Friary:
The Friary was founded for the Dominicans by Meiler de Bermingham, 2nd Lord of Athenry, in 1241 and dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul. The building of the church can really be described as a community effort, as a number of people joined together to build it. The refectory (now destroyed) was built by Felim O'Connor in 1265; Eugene O Heyne built the Dormitory, Cornelius O'Kelly the Chapter House, Dermot O'Treasy the Guest Room and Art MacGallyly the Infirmary. The Chapel of the Blessed Virgin Mary was built by Mac-a-Wallyd de Bermingham and completed by William Wallys who died in 1344. But practically nothing remains of the domestic buildings. What is preserved is the nave-and-chancel church, together with a north aisle and transept. The tall lancet windows in the choir belong to the original church of the 13th century, but considerable portions of the church (including the aisle arches and pillars) are the result of rebuilding in the 14th century, probably by William de Burgo and his wife, Finola (who added 20 feet to the choir), while Joanna de Ruffur (who died in 1408) inserted a new east window.

The History of Galway By Sean Spellissy. Celtic Bookshop, 1999

Dedicated to SS Peter and Paul, building got off to such a fine start that a provincial chapter was held there in 1242. Both the native Irish and colonizing Anglo-Normans co-operated in sponsoring the construction work: Felim O'Connor, King of Connacht and founder of the Abbey of Roscommon, built the refectory, Eugene O'Heyne the dormitory, Cornelius O'Kelly the chapter-house, Walter Husgard the cloisters, Arthur MacGallyly the Infirmary, Bernard O'Trarasy (Treacy?) and his wife the guest-house, and Rodolf Hallatune gave the altar in the chapel of the Blessed Virgin; Thomas O'Kelly, Bishop of Clonfert, built a vault near the north side of the high altar. The priory was completed in 1261.

31. Athenry. The House of St. Peter and St. Paul was founded by Meyler de Bermingham, first Anglo-Norman Lord of Athenry in 1241. The Register tells how the monastery was founded and how other great men helped by building parts and how additions were made. In such cooperative fashion we may suppose that many other monasteries were built regarding which we have but a founder's name. Meyler de Bermingham bought the site for 160 marks from a knight named Robert Branagh, or Welsh, and we may suppose that he built at least the greater part of the church. King Felim O'Conor built the Refectory; Archbishop Flann O'Flynn built the Scholar House; Owen O' Heine built the Dormitory; Cornelius O' Kelly (Conor) the Chapter House; Dermot O'Treasy and his wife Margaret O'Lorchan the great Guest Chamber; and Art Macgallyly the Infirmary. Sir William Liath and his wife gave one hundred marks for building the front and for glass, and enlarged the choir by 20 feet. This enlargement can be seen clearly in the ruins, and seems to have been made with a view to the adoption of the church as a family burying place so as not to interfere with the founder's rights of De Bermingham.

1480 (recte 1481[–2].) 10 Kal. April. (23 March.) St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 23r.) - Lateran Regesta, Vol. DCCCXIII.

To the abbot of St. Mary's, Abbeygormacan (Via noua), and the priors of St. Mary's, Clontuasgertomane, and St. Catherine's, Achruymomane, in the diocese of Clonfert. Mandate to collate and assign to Maurice Otressay, a canon of Clonfert, who is in his twenty-fourth year, the perpetual vicarage of Kyllaemarbolga in the diocese of Clonfert, value 3 marks sterling, so long void that its collation has lapsed to the apostolic see, although William Otressay, priest, of the said diocese, who is to be summoned and removed has detained it for some years, without any title or right; notwithstanding that he holds a canonry and prebend of Clonfert, value 20 marks sterling. The pope hereby dispenses him to receive and retain the said vicarage, notwithstanding the said defect of age, etc., and not to be bound for a year to have himself promoted to any holy order on account of the said vicarage or other benefice with cure or requiring holy orders, whilst studying letters at an university. Vite etc. (At the end: N. xx. Quarto Non. Aprilis anno undecimo. Garilliati.) [3½ pp. –]

1481 4 Kal. March. (26 Feb.) St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 193v.)

To the abbot of St. Mary's, Abbeygormacan (de Via nova), in the diocese of Clonfert, and Cornelius Ochenay and Donald Omulalay, canons of Clonfert. Mandate, as below. The pope has been informed by Maurice Oroesay (?), a canon of Clonfert, that Odo Maccegayn, a canon of the same church, has carnally known a certain kinswoman of his and kept her as his concubine, and has had offspring by her, even after he had been monished by Matthew, bishop of Clonfert, to put her away, and that he has committed perjury and neglected the canonical hours. And the said information added that the fruits etc. of the canonry and prebend of Clonfert which the said Maurice holds are insufficient for his maintenance, and that if the rectory of Dundayre in the diocese of Clonfert, with cure and of the patronage of laymen, which is held by the said Odo for life as united to his canonry and prebend of Clonfert, were separated therefrom and united to the canonry and prebend which the said Maurice holds, for his lifetime, he would be more able to maintain himself. The pope, therefore, hereby orders the above three, if the said Maurice will accuse the said Odo before them, to summon the latter and others concerned, and if they find the foregoing to be true, to dissolve the said union to the said Odo's canonry and prebend, and deprive him of the said rectory, and remove him therefrom, and in that event to unite it, value 16 marks sterling, to the said Maurice's canonry and prebend, value 3 marks sterling, for his lifetime. Circa pastoralis officii. [3 pp. +]

1481 3 Non. March. (5 March.) St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 327r.)

To the dean of Clonfert, and Maurice Otressay and Cornelius Ochenay, canons of the same. Mandate, as below. The pope has learned that a canonry of Clonfert and the prebend called [the prebend] of Kyllaiayn [sic] therein, and the perpetual vicarage of Ligmolasy, and a perpetual benefice, without cure, called a rectory in the church of Kyllmolonog, and another in the church of Magunacclay, in the diocese of Clonfert, both of which benefices are of lay patronage, have been so long void that their collation has lapsed to the apostolic see, although Maurice Ocormacayn, priest, detains the said canonry and prebend, and William Obrogay [sic], an Augustinian canon, the said vicarage, and John Ocormacayn, clerk, of the said diocese (who is illegitimate, being the son of a priest and an unmarried woman), the said benefices, respectively, all of them without any title or right. The pope, therefore, relaxing the oath which Thady Olorchan, clerk, of the said diocese, who is in his twenty-third year, lately swore (after being, at the instance, as is believed, of the said Maurice, William, and John, captured and compelled by lay power) not to try to obtain the said canonry and prebend, vicarage and benefices, hereby orders the above three to summon the said Maurice, William, and John, and to collate and assign the said canonry and prebend, vicarage and benefices (which are without cure), value altogether not exceeding 9 marks sterling, to the said Thady, removing the said Maurice, William, and John. The pope further dispenses him to receive and retain the said vicarage, notwithstanding the said defect of age, etc. Vite etc. (At the end: M. xxii. Septimo Id. Martii anno undecimo. Bonattus, pro A. de Petra.) [3 pp.—]

1482. Prid. Kal. May. (30 April.) St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 142r.)

To Cornelius Ochenay, Maurice Otressay, and Donald Omuilkwy, canons of Clonfert. Mandate, as below. The recent petition of William Oceallaygh, prior of St. John Baptist's, Renydwyn, of the Order of Cruciferi of Jerusalem, in the diocese of Elphin, contained that although he obtained the said priory, conventual, elective and with cure, by canonical collation and held possession of it in peace for fourteen years, Thady Oceallaygh, clerk, under pretext of a collation made de facto to him (then a minor and illegitimate, being the son of unmarried parents, and without any dispensation), despoiled William of the priory, likewise de facto, intruded himself, and forced William to abide by the award of certain arbitrators, who, after receiving from Thady the sum of 24 marks sterling, wrongfully awarded to him the priory. The pope, therefore, hereby orders the above three (seeing that William cannot safely meet Thady in the city and diocese of Elphin), to summon Thady, and if they find to be true what is alleged in regard to the said spoliation, etc., to decree null and void the said collation to Thady and the said award, and in that event to restore William to possession, and, by way of greater precaution, (fn. 1) to make provision to him anew of the said priory, value with its annexes 26 marks sterling, removing Thady, and condemning him to restore the fruits taken since his intrusion and to make satisfaction to William for costs lawfully incurred, under pain of incurring sentence of excommunication, removeable by none but the pope. Justis petentium votis. (In the margin: Maij.) [3½ pp.]

1485. 18 Kal. May. (14 April.) St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 128r.)

To the archdeacon of Clonfert, Maurice Otreasly, a canon of the same, and the official of the same. Mandate to collate and assign to Stephen Laeles, priest, of the diocese of Clonfert, the perpetual vicarage of the parish church of Kyltormora [sic] in the said diocese, yearly value not exceeding 4 marks sterling, so long void that by the Lateran statutes its collation has lapsed to the apostolic see, although Philip Odoeleayn, priest, who is to be summoned and removed, has detained possession for several years, without any title or right. Vite etc. (Gratis pro deo. Juravit.) [2⅓ pp.]

1486–7. 3 Kal. Feb. (30 Jan.) St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 104r.) Vatican Regesta, Vol. DCCXIX. Bullarum Liber XXII. 3 Innocent VIII.

To the abbot of Abbeygormacan (de Via nova) and the prior of the monastery of Clontuasgerta Omane, wont to be governed by a prior, in the diocese of Clonfert, and the official of Clonfert. Mandate, as below. The pope has learned that the perpetual vicarage of the parish church of Rilconeecehne [sic] in the diocese of Clonfert has been so long void that by the Lateran statutes its collation has lapsed to the apostolic see, although Eugene Offathi, who behaves as prior of the monastery of St. Mary, Achdraym Omane, O.S.A., in the said diocese, has without any title detained possession of it for some years. And the pope has been informed by Theobald de Burgo, a canon of Clonfert (Clotferten. [sic]), that Maurice Otressay, a canon of Clonfert (Clotferten.), when under sentence of excommunication, of which he was not ignorant, has taken part in divine offices in contempt of the Keys, thereby contracting irregularity, that he has dilapidated and turned to his own evil purposes the precious movable goods of the prebend called the prebend of Kilteskyll in the church of Clonfert, and of the rectory of the parish church of Dundayre in the said diocese, which is of lay patronage, and is annexed for his lifetime to his said canonry and prebend, and has not served the said rectory by himself or by a vicar, although often monished by the ordinary. At the petition, therefore, of the said Theobald, who alleges that he is of a great race of nobles, the pope hereby orders the above three, if he will accuse the said Maurice before them, to summon the latter, and if they find the foregoing to be true, to deprive and remove him from the said prebend, and in that event to summon the said Eugene, and collate and assign the said vicarage and prebend to the said Theobald, and, with consent of the patrons, unite and appropriate the said rectory, and also the said vicarage, to the said prebend, yearly values not exceeding 20, 6, and 3 marks sterling, respectively, for as long as he shall hold the latter, inducting him, and removing the said Maurice from the said prebend, and rectory, and the said Eugene from the said vicarage. Apostolice sedis providentia circumspecta. [6¼ pp.]

1488 4 Non. April. (2 April.) St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 84v.).

To the abbot of the monastery of St. Mary de Portu puro, Clonfert, and the prior of the monastery of Clontuscerta Omane in the diocese of Clonfert, wont to be governed by a prior, and the dean of Clonfert. Mandate, as below. The pope has learned that a certain perpetual benefice without cure (simplex), called the church or rectory de Madnurlay, of lay patronage, and the perpetual vicarage of the parish church of Lyemolassy [sic], in the diocese of Clonfert, have been so long void that by the Lateran statutes their collation has lapsed to the apostolic see, although John Ocorroakeryn [sic], clerk, and Thady Olorichayn, priest, of the said diocese, respectively, have without any title or right detained possession for some time. At the recent petition, therefore, of John Ytreassy, (Note 2) clerk, of the said diocese, the pope hereby orders the above three to summon the said John Ocormakayn and Thady, and the bishop and chapter of Clonfert, and others concerned, and if they find that the said benefice and vicarage, yearly values not exceeding 2 and 5 marks sterling, respectively, are void in any way, etc., to erect the said benefice into a prebend of Clonfert, and to erect therein a canonry, for the lifetime of the said John Otrassi, and in that event to collate such erected canonry and prebend and the said vicarage to the said John Otreassy, inducting him, and removing the said John Ocormakayn and Thady. Apostolice sedis circumspecta benignitas. [4⅓ pp. In the margin at the end: ‘Maij.’]

1488 3 Id. May. (13 May.) St. Peter's, Rome. (f. 99v.)

To the abbot of St. Mary's, Abbeygormacan (de Noua uia), in the diocese of Clonfert, and Maurice Otrassy and Donatus Ohwuiriy (?), canons of Clonfert. Mandate, as below. The recent petition of Philip Odownylay, priest, of the diocese of Clonfert, contained that after he had been dispensed by papal authority on account of illegitimacy, as the son of a priest and a married woman, to be promoted to all, even holy orders and hold a benefice even with cure, and had been made a clerk, he obtained by canonical collation the perpetual vicarage of the parish church of Kiltormoyr in the said diocese; that he resigned it when provision had been made to him by the same [papal] authority of the perpetual vicarage of the parish church of Killynaduna in the said diocese; and that, without having obtained any other dispensation, he and Fergal Odonnlan, priest, of the said diocese (to whom provision had been canonically made of the said vicarage of Kyltormoyr, resigned the said vicarages of Kyllinaduna and Kyltolmoyr [sic], respectively, to the present bishop of Clonfert extra R.c., who by his ordinary authority admitted the said resignations, and made de facto collation and provision of the said vicarages of Killynaduna and Kiltormoyr to the said Fergal and Philip, respectively, under pretext whereof the said Philip took possession of the said vicarage of Kyltormoyr and has detained it, taking the fruits, likewise de facto, thereby contracting disability. The said collation and provision of the said vicarage of Kyltormoyr being therefore without force, and the pope having learned that the said vicarage of Kyltormoyr is still void as above, he hereby rehabilitates on account of the foregoing the said Philip (who alleges that after the said dispensation he had himself promoted to the said orders, that he has at great expense repaired and restored the said church of Kiltormoyr, which was in ruin, and that the said vicarage of Kyltormoyr has been by authority of the ordinary de facto united to the canonry and prebend of Clonfert held by Thady Macegayn, who has not had possession of it), remits to him the fruits received by him from the said vicarage of Kyltormoyr, and orders the above three to summon the said Thady and others concerned, and if they find the said vicarage of Kyltormoyr, yearly value not exceeding 3 marks sterling, to be void as above or in any way, etc., to collate and assign it to the said Philip. The pope specially dispenses him to receive it, and to resign it when he pleases, etc., notwithstanding the said defect, etc. Before they proceed to the execution of these presents, he is to resign it to them.

1604 Killimor

The old Church of Killimor stands a short distance to the west of the village. It is the largest parish church of the period (circa 1595) being 75ft x 18ft. The greater part of the two side walls are destroyed, but the two gables which are 75ft apart, are in good state of preservation. The east gable contains a window in the pointed style, very much veiled with ivy, and the west gable is featureless. The oldest tombstone is a monument to William O'Treasaigh who was buried in the year 1604. St Íomar's Well is situated on the side of the road immediately at the church, and is still considered somewhat sacred. [O’Donovan, Ordenance Survey letters]

Irish Tokens 1653-1679 

These were given out by the Crown in Ireland, and were used as a royal license to do business. If you were a trades or business merchant you had to obtain this token. Some had dates on them and many did not. By 1680 the tokens were replaced by a Crown halfpenny copper coin.

...Dr. T.B. Costello, M.R.I.A....showed members a sketch of the token of a prosperous Tuam merchant of the seventeenth century. On one side of the token was "James Tressy 1d" (in the centre), on the reverse "TUUM MARCHANT 1670" and in the centre a Heraldic shield. The token was found in Shop Street by one of the workmen, when excavating for the new sewerage some years ago.

Tuam

The trade tokens issued by James Treacy in 1670 represent an unidentified local initative. The particular business in which this Tuam Merchant was engaged is likely to have been located on 'Trassy's Plott' which is shown on the 1720 map as lying between the Tullinadaly and Ballygaddy roads (fig 2). A premises nowadays known as The Thatch is centrally situated on this plot. It is said to be the oldest public house in Tuam and may indeed go back to James Treacy's time.

1673 The Franciscan convert

After my Conversion [to Protestantism], I applied my self to the Lord Bishop of Clonfeart, who gave me a Curates place in Loughreah, with some other preferment in the County of Galloway, worth about 80l. per annum, where I, shortly after, in using my Function in the Church, was shot at by one Thomas  Tressey, a Papist, Inhabitant of that place, but not wounded, for which he was afterward bound to his good behaviour, by the said Bishop; after which, the Papists, there, did several times threaten me with death: whereupon, for preservation of my Life, I was forced to retire into Lymerick, whereby I lost such preferment as the said Bishop had bestowed upon me: But before I went from Loughreagh, several of the Papists Priests, and others, living thereabouts, which I am ready to name, and do hereby Accuse, did publiquely report that his Majesty, his Royal Highness, and all the Nobility & Gentry of the Kingdome of England, were privately of their Religion, which they used as an Argument to make me fall back again to Popery.

8 January 1842 (TH) Tuam Quarter Sessions - Electors

...the first was with reference to the effect of a convenant in the lease of the applicant (a man named Tracy), who was bound by convenant to errect a house of a certain description on his farm. It appeared that the applicant was entittled to be registered as a £10 freeholder, but upon being examined he adsmitted that the erection of the house would cost him £60, and that a solvent tenant could not afford to pay him £10 a year over his rent and the £60 which it would cost him to build the house. The lease was dated in 1838 and a period of 5 years allowed for the errection of the house. The same circumstances attended many others; but the Assistant Barrister allowed the claim, saying that the subject matter of penal convenants had already been made a matter of decision of a court of law.

7 September 1844 (NG) Daring Attempt at Robbery and Murder [Portumna]

On Monday night last, Patt Lally, Mary Lally, the wife of John Lally, and Jane Lally, his sisiter, proceeded to a field, in the neighbourhood of Prtumna, to steal wheat, the property of a poor man named Patt Treasy, who was aroused by the bark of his dog upon whicj he got up and awoke one of his neighbours, who is a pensioner, and proceeded to the field armed with two shillelas. Lally challenged them to stand back, however, they advanced on the party when, Lally deliberately fired a pistol at Treasy, which shot took effect in his left side and shoulder, but which is not mortal. The old pensioner rushed forward and gave the fellow a shot of his shillela, that never missed fire, and with his assistance captured the entire party. The police brought them in this morning in a deblorable situation, beat in a dreadful way, and was unable to proceed to prison as the Doctor deemed it dangerous. Some of the police went to Lally's dwelling, and on making an acute search found some arms, powder, and ball &c. Much praise is due to Head-constable Roberts of thistown for his efficiency on this occasion and on various others.
