Re: James Tracey

My great grandfather's name is James Tracey. He married Mary Todd and their daughter Annie Tracey is my grandmother. She was born in Ireland but must have come to Canada where she married my grandfather Job Rogers in Toronto Ontario Canada.

There children are:

Mary, James (my father) Fred, George, Albert, Harold, Charles, Margaret and Ella

I'm trying to find more info about James Tracey and Mary Todd.

My name is Don Rogers, youngest of the James W. Rogers family

September 1, 1905 Clinton Register

DEATH OF MR. TRACY.

Timothy TRACEY, died suddenly Tuesday afternoon at his home in Clinton, aged 75.  He had been in poor health about six months, but had not been confined to his bed, and less than half an hour before his death was walking about the house.

Deceased was born in Ireland and came to America about sixty years ago.  He lived in Wapella several years, moving to Clinton when the Illinois Central shops were moved here from that place.  He had worked for that company most of the time for about fifty years.   He is survived by his wife and the following children: Mrs. P. CROWLEY, Mrs. C. CULLY, Mrs. John DUFFEY, Miss Julia, John and Wm., all of Clinton.  He was a faithful member of the Catholic church.

 

February 4, 1910 Clinton Register

Three Score and Three.

Mrs. Mary TRACEY died early Sunday morning at her home in the east part of the city, aged 63 years.  Mary DONEGAN was born in Ireland July, 1847, and her parents came to the United States when she was 7 yrs old.  They settled at Wapella, where she lived until about thirty years ago.  In 1862 she was married to Timothy TRACEY, and they moved to Clinton about 15 years later, where she has since lived.  Her husband died five years ago.

She is survived by six of her children, as follows: Mrs. Josephine CULLY, Mrs. Mame DUFFY, Mrs. Margaret CROLLY, Miss Julia, John J. and William, all of Clinton.

 

Emily Tracy, 38, b. 1857 Ireland, single, (d. of William Tracy & Eliza Ewing) married Eugene Parker, 37, b. 1858 Connecticut  (s. of Andrew F. Parker & Martha Butter) 07 Nov 1895 Manhattan, New York, New York, United States

 

 

William Tracey, father of Elizabeth Tracey 

Richard Hanley abt 1830 of Ellice Co. Perth - Note: Roman Catholic

Elizabeth Tracey abt 1841

Children:

1.   William b. 1857 - (sent to live with a Connelly family in Peel)

2.   Michael abt. 1861 - baptized in Stratford Ont- (sent to live with a different Connelly family in Peel)

3.   Ellen abt. 1860 - (sent to live with the John O'Grady abt 1820 family of Peel)

4.   John b. 1864 - baptized in Stratford Ont.

Here is Ellen's wedding announcement:

11601-78 Jacob WENTZ, 21, cooper, Galt Ont., Elmira, s/o Jacob WENTZ & Mary BRONTE, married Ellen HANLEY, 19, Stratford Ont., Peel twp., d/o Richard HANLEY & Elizabeth TRACEY, witn: William TRACEY of Peel twp. & Caroline WENTZ of Elmira, 8 Jan 1878 at Macton

Elizabeth died between 1864 and 1871 as the children were all split up.  Any info would be appreciated.

I did find that the Tracey and Connelly family were early settlers to a place in Canada in Wellington County called Macton.

St. Joseph's Church, Macton, is entirely rural, and stands in the Township of Peel, Wellington County, on the northern boundary line of Wellesley Township, about three miles northeast of Linwood, now its nearest railway station, and about twenty miles northwest of Berlin. About three miles east there is Wallenstein, another railway station and a small village.

The district was settled somewhat later than St. Clement's, mostly by Irish people. Among the early settlers were, in Wellesley : The Connollys, 'Neils, McCardles, O'Donnells, Traceys, Raffertys, Barnes, Nolands, Doughertys, Hayes, Gibbons, McGoeys, Ryans, Nagles, Short, Kennedys, Malloys, Connors, Lanaghans, Farrells, etc.
