It may be presumed that the Traceys of Wexford are
descended from the Uí Bairrche.

The Traceys
of Wexford can trace their history back to the beginning of historical records,
as Wexford formed part of the territory of the Uí Bairrche. It
would appear from the records of the mid-1800’s that there was four main
settlements of families: North Wexford (close to Arklow, Co. Wicklow); Central
Wexford (Enniscorthy and Ferns); South East Wexford (Wexford Town and
Rosslare); and South West Wexford (New Ross). Named after the Traceys, there
are the townlands of Ballytracey (Baile Uí Threasaigh, Ballegresaigh, Tracey’s
Town) just north of Boolavogue, four miles south east of Ferns, and in the
south Tracystown [Traceystown] East (Baile Uí Threasaigh
Thior) and Tracystown West (Baile Uí Threasaigh Thiar), located 3 miles south-east
and 2 miles west of Taghmon respectively. In the Grand Panel of the county of Wexford
of 1608, there is a reference to Illanstrassock (Tracey’s bog/marsh islands) in
the Barony of Gwery [Gorey]. The best match may indicate that it is the Island
townlands of the civil parish of Rossminoge, west of Gorey Town. South Wexford
may also the home of Norman Traceys, as there are historical records dating
from 1280 to 1307, but there does not seem to be any references after this
date.

To the Committee for conducting the Free-Press
Dearest Brethren,
As the Freedom and Liberty of the Press, is no small Part of the
Happiness of the Subject, and that through the Channel of your Paper, Facts can
be related without Distinction of Persons; I take the Liberty of requesting you
to insert in your next Paper the following Case, which you may rely on being a
Fact, having seen it on Record in the Court of Exchequer.
Not 100 Miles from the upper End of Great Britain-street, lives a young
Reverend Parson, from Size, and surprizing abilitiees well qualified for a
Mitre, and from his Marraige to the Niece of a Right Reverend, not without
Hopes of one. This Gentleman's Father, A Resident, near Arklow, in the County
of Wicklow, where he had a small Estate and some Leasehold Interests, in or
about the Year 1745, set about 70 Acres, Part of his Leaseholds, to one Garret Tracy, at a Rent of about 11s.
an Acre, which Lease and Premises this Tenant has since held, and more
frequently for that Time paid the Rent before than after it was due, as appears
by the Receipts. This young Parson on the Death of his Father, as only Child,
became seized of his whole Possessions, and in the Year 1769 applied to said
Tracy, to surrender his old Lease, so made by his Father, and take a new one
from him, at a rent of about 18s. an Acre, which said Tracy agreed to, and this
young Parson having declared the greatest Regard for his and his Father's good
old Tenant, who not only paid him before Hand, but was ready on all Occasions
to join him in Security, told this poor simple honest Man that to save him
Expence, he would draw the Leases; accordingly printed Leases were filled up
and executed by said Parties, but the old ones, through the Design of his
Reverence not cancelled or surrendered. His Reverence then alledging, as is
likely was the case, that he was in Want of Money, applied to his Tenant to
advance him a Year's Rent, and he not having it in his Power to comply with his
Request, his Reverence, in Hillary Term last, caused a Bill of Discovery to be
filed against this old Tenant, on the aforesaid Transactions, and is proceeding
thereon, to dispossess him of his Farm.
Quere, was it upon such Principles, the Acts against the Growth of Popery
were founded?
As I am not acquainted with any of the Parties, if his Reverence will
Please to quiet his honest Tenant, in the Possession of his Farm, and be for
the future more careful of his Conduct, it is all that intended by,
Gentlemen,
Your Well-wisher,

...Constable Jas. Treacy, Queen's
Co., to Wexford...
Constable Treacy (Clonaslee, Queen's County). HC Deb 07 July 1910 vol 18 c1768 1768
§ Mr. DELANY asked the Chief
Secretary whether his attention has been called to the case of Constable [James] Treacy, lately
stationed at Clonaslee, Queen's County, against whom it was alleged that on a
certain Sunday in October last, when acting as barrack orderly between nine and
ten o'clock at night, he stopped two men outside the barracks, and, after
procuring drink for them from an adjacent public-house, incited them to smash
the bicycle belonging to the sergeant of a neighbouring station and throw it
into the river; that on another occasion this constable supplied horns to two
young men, prompting them at the same time to sound a local Protestant, lately
married, with the object of annoying the sergeant; and that he advised certain
persons to feign drunkenness before the sergeant, get arrested, and then go
before a doctor and a magistrate and charge the sergeant with unlawful arrest;
whether he is aware that evidence of a most reliable character is forthcoming
in support of those charges; and will he grant a public sworn inquiry in order
that the allegations against this constable may be thoroughly investigated?
§ Mr. REDMOND BARRY My attention
has already been drawn to the matters referred to in the question, which were
investigated by two experienced police officers some months ago. The
Inspector-General then came to the conclusion that the case of Constable Treacy
would be sufficiently met by his transfer to another county, as already ordered
on other grounds. I see no reason for any further inquiry.
Royal Irish Constabulary (Constable Treacy).HC Deb 13 July 1910 vol 19 cc573-4W 573W
§ Mr. DELANY asked the Chief
Secretary whether he can say upon what date Constable Treacy left Clonaslee,
and where he is at present stationed; and whether he is engaged in ordinary police
duties?
§ Mr. BIRRELL Constable Treacy
left Clonaslee on 14th May and is at present stationed at Coolgreaney [Coolgreany Co. Wexford]. He performs
ordinary police duties.
Royal Irish Constabulary (Constable Treacy).HC Deb 14 July 1910 vol 19 cc591-2 591
§ Mr. REDDY (for Mr. Delany) asked
the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether he will order a magisterial
investigation into the charges preferred against Constable Treacy, lately
stationed at Clonaslee, Queen's County, seeing that the evidence of eight
independent witnesses is forthcoming charging this constable with incitement to
crime and outrage on three distinct occasions?
§ Mr. BIRRELL As the hon. Member
has already been informed, this matter has been investigated by two experienced
police officers. The constable has been transferred to another county, and I
see no reason for any further inquiry.
§ Mr. REDDY (for Mr. Delany) asked
the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether, at the inquiry held on 19th April at
Clonaslee, Queen's County, by District-Inspectors O'Connor, Kanturk, and
Wallace, Cappawhite, into the charges of incitement to crime and outrage
preferred against Constable Treacy, the evidence was taken on oath; and whether
he will lay a copy of the report of those two police officers and the minutes
of evidence upon the Table of the House?
§ Mr. BIRRELL Evidence was not
taken on oath at the inquiry referred to. I do not propose to lay upon the
Table of the House a copy of the report of the officers who conducted the
inquiry.

Traceys of Central Wexford (PLU Enniscorthy)
|
|
The earliest record is that of Roderick
O’Trassy who is listed as a Bishop of Ferns, and who is reported to have died
in 1145 AD. His position would indicate that the Traceys and the Uí Bairrche
held some power in that area at that time. Close by, there is the townland of
Ballytracey (Baile Uí Threasaigh, Tracey’s Town, 1654
Ballitrassie/Ballitrassy) at Boolavogue, four miles south east of Ferns,
which may have been his homeland. To the north, overlooking Ballytracey is
Carrigroe Hill, which was used in ancient times for the celebration of
Lughnasa (Halloween). It has an unusual cleft rock formation called the
giants bed. After the Norman invasion, Ballytracey may have become the property
of the church, similar to nearby Ballyregan, as part of a resolution of a
dispute in 1226-7 between John de St. John, Bishop of Ferns and the
Prendergasts of Enniscorthy. The image on the
left is taken from the shine of St. Máedoc of Ferns, and the two figures are
dressed in the fashion of the early aristocracy and clergy of Ireland. The
chap on the left reminds me of the pose that my father used to make. |
De Episcopis Fernensibus
Extract from Ware 1665 |
In 1624, Lord Esmond on behalf of his ward stated that Thos Tracy (of
Ferns?), among others, had caused loss of profits to the amount of £1000. Implicated in the 1641 rebellion was Thomas Trassy of Cloghaman, gent
(Clohamon on the
Slaney, six miles north west of Ferns). In 1642, Nic Tracie also of Cloghamon
was named as a landowner who was in active rebellion. “The list is
a veritable 'Who's Who' of Catholic Wexford in the mid seventeenth-century…”
(Whelan 1990)
Six miles south of Ferns is Enniscorthy, which became the main economic
centre of the area from medieval times onwards, due to it’s position on the Slaney
river. It is also the main centre of the Traceys according to later records.
The earliest reference is to Patrick Tracey of Kilcarberry Hill, (St. Johns
townland), south of Enniscorthy Town, which is located on the west side of the
Slaney and it’s tributary the Boro river.

Patrick Tracey (1711-1789) |
Painting
by John Trumbull in 1784-6 of Captain Patrick Tracey, born 1711 in Kilcarberry
Hill, Enniscorthy, died 1789 Newburyport Massachusetts North America. His
nephews Captain Nicholas Tracy and Captain James Tracy also followed him to
America. The Tracy families of Newburyport were major players in the American
revolution. Captain Nathaniel Tracy (1751-1796), one of the sons of Patrick
Tracey, was the chief financier of the American Revolution. The
following webpage contains a history of the family: Traceys
of Enniscorthy and Newburyport The
following are articles on the family: Echo 28

Nathaniel Tracy (1751-1796) |
It would appear that Patrick Tracy had a brother Robert Tracy. In 1768
there is a record of the will of Robert Tracy, of Killcarberry, which is not available
from the Irish National Archives. According to
Thomas Amory Lee, William Tracy Eustis (1822-1906) procured a copy of
this will, and he states the following:
“Robert Tracy of Killcarberry,
Wexford, Ireland, farmer, died between December, 1767, and Feb. 22, 1768, when
his will was probated. He therein leaves one shilling each to sons Matthew,
John, James, and to daughters Katherine Devereux, otherwise Tracy, wife of
Thomas Devereux, and Mary Tracy, otherwise Nevil, wife of John Nevil; to
youngest son, Martin Tracy, one-fourth part of thirty-two acres in
Killcarberry, corn housed; under the management of Henry Tracy of the Ring of
St. John in said county, and Matthew Tracy of Rotholm, barony of Forth, in said
county, farmers, they to be executors. Apparently his wife died before 1767.
Her name is unknown.”
Since his son Nicholas is not mentioned in the
will, it may be that he had left for America before the will was drawn up. By
the same reasoning, if the James referenced in the will is Captain James Tracy,
then he would have left for America after the death of his father. In the Freemans Journal of
February 1777, it states that Captain James Tracy, is an Irishman, had served
in our navy, and is a nephew to old Tracy [Patrick], the principal merchant of
Newbury Port, and cousin to the owners of the present prize [Nathaniel and John
Tracy]. In the will of Captain Nicholas Tracy of
Newburyport who died in 1787, there is a reference to his brothers Matthew
Tracy and John Tracy and his sister Catherine Devereux, all of the Kingdom of
Ireland, which may mean that they were alive at that time. The following Memorial of the Dead
is listed for Old Ballymore SE Wexford: “Here lies the body
of Catherine Devereux alias Tracy of Colkeren…her husband Thomas De(vereux) who
depd this life May 12th 1803 aged 78”
The Tracys of Newburyport were trading and travelling to Europe and
presumably had contact with Wexford. It was Nathaniel Tracy who forwarded
letters from Wexford to Commodore John Barry [father of the American Navy],
regarding his relatives living there (SE Wexford):
“Letters from Ireland - the first definite word from his family
since the outbreak of war [1775] were awaiting Barry when he reached New
London, on July 20. Their exact contents we cannot be sure of, but, apparently,
they contained word of the death of his parents, and the destitute situation of
his two sisters, Margaret Howlin and Eleanor Hayes, and their little families.
"They are really very moving to me," the Captain wrote to Nathaniel Tracy, at Boston, who had forwarded the letters. He asked Tracy to arrange for payment of twenty guineas annually to the unfortunates, and suggested the money be cleared through London bankers.”
Ref: Clark,
William Bell (1938) Gallant John Barry 1745-1803. The Story Of A Naval Hero Of
Two Wars. The Macmillan Company, NY.
There is also a record of a letter from Barry in 1783, regarding the money that he owed to him (Griffin).
One of the Tracys of Newburyport, Captain Thomas Tracy who left Ireland around 1766, did travel to Ireland in 1783 and visited his parents, but it is not completely certain that he was from Wexford.
The following is the family tree drawn up from
the information available:
1. Unknown Tracy
1.1. Robert
Tracy, farmer of County Wexford (died about December 1767)
1.1.1 Katherine Tracy
of Wexford married Thomas Devereux (born about 1725, died Ballymore, Wexford
May 12th 1803 aged 78)
1.1.2 Captain
Nicholas Tracy (born about 1726 Co. Wexford, died on 23rd May 1787 Newburyport,
MA)
1.1.3 Matthew Tracy
of Wexford (may have died after 1787)
1.1.4 John Tracy of
Wexford (may have died after 1787)
1.1.5 James Tracy of
Wexford, perhaps Captain James Tracy (died perhaps October 1777 MA)
1.1.6 Mary Tracy of
Wexford married John Nevil
1.1.7 Martin Tracy,
youngest son, of Killcarberry Wexford
1.2. Captain Patrick
Tracey (born about 1711 at Kilcarberry Hill, Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford, died
28th February 1789 Newburyport, MA)
There is a British War
Office/Chelsea Hospital record for a Patrick Treacy (b. about 1778) of St. Mary
Parish Wexford, who enlisted in 1801, at ‘Inniscorthy’. He served 7 years as a foot
soldier and 11½ years as a dragoon. According to the record he served over 15
years in the East Indies, but there is another reference to an extra eight
years approximately in the 15th India. He was discharged with a
fractured left leg. He is described as five feet two inches in
height, brown hair, grey eyes, dark complexion and a locksmith by trade. His
physical description is also included in the record. He retired to the Cape,
South Africa on a pension granted in March 1819. The records of 1830, state that he was on a
full pension of 1s per day.
It may be presumed that Traceys lived in this area before the written
records that are available. There is land in Kilcarberry/Ballinapierce called
Treacy’s Land. There may also be indications of an earlier history. There is a
family by the name of Hassey living in Davidstown Parish. Hassey is a very rare name in Ireland
and may be dervived from the pronunciation of the Gaelic
name of Uí Threasaigh. There is also a townland in the parish called Clohass (Clogh hassie),
which may be named after the family. In addition, there is another townland
named Ballinavary (Baile-na-mBarrach), which may indicate an Uí Bairrche
connection.
There are interesting reports describing the unusual burial habits of
the Traceys of the area:
“The Priory of St. John’s near to
Enniscorthy.
This religious establishment was founded at St.
John’s on the small river Urrin, near to its junction with the Slaney, about
one mile south of Enniscorthy, and eleven N.W. of Wexford. …
In this old grave yard was observed,
until about a quarter of a century ago, a burial custom of some families which
we have never heard of elsewhere. Three families in comfortable circumstances,
of the names of Tracy, Doyle and Daly, with others their immediate connections
buried their dead without coffins. The body being brought in a well made coffin
to the edge of the grave, the friends assembled around, and the body, the face
for a moment being uncovered in order that they might take the last look at the
lamented departed, was laid in the grave, previously prepared with great care.
The grave was made more than six feet deep, and at each end a course of stone
work, without mortar, was raised full two feet high. Much attention was given
to the providing of tough green sods, cut about seven feet long and about two
wide, from the alluvial banks of the Slaney, several of which being rolled up
close by, were conveyed to the graveyard, and the grave then neatly lined with
them from top to bottom, a smooth one covering it perfectly below. The grave
thus presented a smooth green appearance, dry grass and moss were strewn
thickly in it, and a pillow of the same raised the head, as it were in bed. The
corpse in its ample winding sheet, was then removed from the coffin, and laid
in the grave – a stout plank or two, then placed lengthwise from the stonework
at head and foot, and not in contact with the body, and the green sods, the
grass turning downwards, carefully folded over all. The grave was then filled
in the usual manner, and covered with the ordinary green sod, and the coffin
was left for the use of the first poor person who might require it. No coiming
was ever practiced beyond the suppressed working of natural grief. The last
ceremony of this kind which took place
here, was at the funeral of John Doyle of Craan, but his family, and the others
who up to that time were strict observers of it, have since conformed to the
practice of their neighbours, and now bury in coffins. No reason has come down
in local story, of the origin of the custom.”
Wexford Independent
of May 3, 1856, page 1.
Church records for the area begin at
the start on the nineteenth century. Just north of Kilcarberry is Enniscorthy
town and entries for Traceys in the Catholic Church records start from 1801
onwards. A mile to the west of Kilcarberry, and also on the Boro river is
Ballinapierce (Ballineperesagh, Ballina pierce) townland in the parish of
Davidstown. Entries for Traceys in the Catholic Church records start from 1806
onwards.
There is another British War
Office/Chelsea Hospital record for a Michael Tracey (b. circa 1825), born in the parish of Enniscorthy, Wexford and joined the 13th Regiment
in Dublin on the 24 of January 1844 at the age of 19. His service record states
that he served 20 years 111 day, during which period he served 11 years 10
months abroad, 10 years 8 months in The East indies and 1 year 2 months in
China.
He was discharged being unfit for further duty on the 30th June 1864.
He had four good conduct badges, no medals and one court martial. He served as
a private in the 13th Light Infantry from 24th March? 1844 to 30th May 1844,
and in the 87th from 1st June 1844 to his discharge. He was 5'8", fresh
complexion, grey eyes and dark brown hair. His intended residence is given as Liverpool.
In the Tithe records of 1827-1833, there appears to four Tracey familys
located in and around Enniscorthy town and also in the in the Catholic
Parish of Monagear.
The families in Ballinapierce are the only ones that remained in the area.
In 1833, Martin Tracy married Margaret Neil. She was probably also from
Ballinapierce or nearby St. Johns. In December 1801, Thomas Neale of
Ballinapierce was murdered, his house burned down, and his children Michael and
Catherine were also injured. Michael Neile is named in the Tithe records for
Ballinapierce. In consequence of the crimes, a Proclamation was issued by the
Lord Lieutenant and Council, offering a reward for information of £200 for each
person prosecuted, or a pardon if they were involved and informed on their
fellows. Thomas Neale is buried in Clonmore Cemetery. Margaret Neil was
probably the grand-daughter of Thomas Neale.
There is a reference that an Arthur Tracy (s. of John & Julia Tracy, both dead), Roman Catholic, stone mason and bricklayer, aged 27 years of Enniscorthy, Wexford, Ireland & Julia Tracy (d. of Patrick & Julia Tierney, both dead) Roman Catholic, domestic servant, aged 26 years of Dublin, Ireland, arrived in New South Wales, Australia on the ‘Alfred’ on the 29 Jan 1842. Their child, Jane Tracy was born on board 28 January 1842. Also on board ship and who may be relatives, were the children of Patrick and Mary Tracy of Dublin, Ann Tracey aged 19 and John Tracy, bricklayer, aged 23 who was married to Anne Lachlan of Wicklow. They were bounty immigrants, whose passage was paid by the colonial government, in order to have suitable skilled labour and tradespeople. There are church records from St. Nicholas Parish, Dublin for Arthur’s marriage in 1839 and the baptism of a son William in 1840.

In 1853, the Griffith Valuation records show
Martin and James Tracy occupying lands and houses in Ballinapierce and Martin
has a larger holding of land in nearby Dunanore. From an examination of the
land maps, their holdings appear to be on the north bank of the Boro between
Ballinapierce Bridge and Victoria Bridge (Soldiers Hole). These are the plots
maked 11 and 12 in the middle pink map. According to the land records, Martin
gave up his holding in Dunanore around the 1860s. His holding in
Ballinapierce passed to Matthew Tracey around the 1880’s after which it
passed out of the family. It appears that James gave up his holding in
Ballinapierce for a while around the 1870’s, which seems to be reflected in
the church records. In the 1880’s the land was in possession of his
representatives, which may be presumed to be his daughters. The lands in
Ballinapierce, were first let by the De Burghs and then sub-let by the the
Beattys. Perhaps a co-incidence, in 1885 and 1886, the agent for the letting
of Ballinapierce House (occupied by Philip Beatty) and approximately 100
acres in Ballinapierce, was Richard H. Tracy of Naas, Kildare (see Kildare). He worked
for the De Burgh family in Naas. De Burghs also owned the land in
Ballinapierce. |

In the middle
part of the 1860’s Mathew Tracey had moved into Enniscorthy town, was married
and had children. In July 1872, he made a contribution to the Galway
Vindication Fund. In April 1880 in a letter to the Irish Times, Matthew Tracy
is listed as one of the electors of Enniscorthy, who objected to the treatment
of Parnell when he visited the town. In Bassett’s
Directory of 1885, there is a reference to Mathew Treacy, Baker & Flour Dealer, Market Street, Enniscorthy.
There is also a reference to James Treacy, land-owner in Kiltealy to the west of Enniscorthy.
In
October 1877, at the funeral of Sir James Power, Bart. of Edermine,
Enniscorthy, county Wexford, one of chief mourners was J.E. Tracy, solicitor,
of Cork. He appears to be the only chief mourner from outside of Wexford and
his relationship to the Power family has not been determined.
In 1888, Matthew Treacy, Cathedral street,
Enniscorthy was advertising for a female confectioner.
In 1894, there are two classified advertisements in the Irish Times for
a Mrs Tracy of Kildrea [Kiltrea?] House and Chapel Street, Enniscorthy, looking
for positions for a cook and a yardman and wife.
In the 1901
and 1911 census records for Enniscorthy town, there only a reference to Matthew
Treacy’s family. In 1911, the family lived in various addresses in the town.
Also there appears to be a discrepancy in the age of John Treacy.
In 1913, John Treacy was part of the White-Boys Drama Class and in May
1914, he was one of the cast of a production in the Athenaeum, staged by the
Gaelic League.
In 1916, the assistant to the principal of the Davidstown national
school was Kathleen Dempsey, who later married J. Treacy [unknown address], and
both went to Canada in 1919.

In the Griffiths Valuation of 1853 the
following were recorded:
James and Martin Tracy of Ballynapierce St. Johns, South of Enniscorthy.
Martin Tracey is also recorded in the neighbouring townland of Dunanore, Clonmore.
These areas are located on the west bank of the Slaney and it’s tributary the
Boro. It would appear that Martin now held the lands in Ballnapierce previously
held by Michael in the Tithe Records.

Traceys of South Wexford
As stated previously, South Wexford
may have been the home of Norman Traceys, referenced in historical records
dating from 1280 to 1307, but there does not seem to be any references after
this date. It is also possible that the Richard Tracy named was not a Norman.
The records state that Richard Tracy held 2 carucats 60 acres (approx 300 acres
in total) in Leffeth/Le Fech/Fyth (possibly The Fayth, Wexford Town) and
Polryth/Pollrith/Polrych (possibly Pollwitch located near Mayglass 2 miles
north from Tomhaggard, South-East Wexford) and pays yearly £5.7s.4d. without
suit. Another possibility is that his holding was located beside John Occle/John de Ocle land at Mountgarrett, New
Ross.

The ruins of the Norman castle at Tracystown West, built around 1450
AD as part of a series of defensive castles in south Wexford. |
Tracystown East (Baile Uí Threasaigh Thior) and Tracystown West (Baile Uí Threasaigh Thiar, 1654 Trassistowne/Trassestowne), located 3 miles south-east
and 2 miles west of Taghmon respectively, may have been either Norman or
Gaelic settlements. They are located on the boundary of Bargy barony. Morley at al state “These last
townlands may be of Norman origin but references to the Norman Tracys in
south Wexford are scarce and they may not have remained in the area. The
occurrence of Tracytown as a townland name in an area of Norman settlement
may seem to support the Norman attribution of Tracy, but even a cursory examination of Wexford place names shows this reasoning to be unsound”. If Traceystown East is a Gaelic
settlement, then Tincurra Church would have been of importance to the Traceys
and the Uí Bairrche. It fulfills a number of criteria as an inauguration or
óenach/meeting site. The placename Tincurra (Tincur =
marriage portion/settlement) is mostly particular to Wexford and occurs in
three locations, in areas with an Uí Bairrche connection. |
The ruins of Tincurra church on the edge of Tracystown East, which
appears to be of celtic origin. |
Wexford Town & Rosslare (South East Wexford) PLU Wexford

In July 1764, James
Tracy, Ale Draper [alehouse
keeper],
of Wexford [town?] was a witness to a pre-marriage settlement between
Christopher Jeffares, of Furzeytown [Tacumshin, Forth], and Mary Berry, of
Ballykelly [Killiane, Forth?]. Most of the persons mentioned are located in
Forth barony, including the Wheelocks (see Ballyrane).

In the battle for the franchise,
both James Tracey and Nicholas Tracey of Wexford Town are listed in a petition
of leading catholics of Wexford.
The Tithes records list
In 1831 Nicholas Treacy of Mauldinstown was listed as
a Tithe Defaulters. In 1833, he was listed as having 11a/1r/4p (ref 31/116)

In the February 1850 Parliamentary
Elecotors for the borough of Wexford, Mathew Tracy of Maudlintown is listed.
In a Landed Estates deed, there is a
reference to a cabin and backside, held by Denis Tracy, joining the Corporation
ground, near John's-gate, facing John's churchyard, prior to 1856. The only
other reference to a Denis Tracy in Wexford, is as a sponsor in Enniscorthy.

Margt Tracey, 62, 4'10", Dak eyes. grey hair, sallow complexion, lives Wexford, RC, widow, stealing a fish,
The Church of the Immaculate Conception, Rowe Steet, Wexford Town, was opened in 1858. One of the Stations of the Cross has the following dedication:
‘XII In memory of her deceased friends by Alice Tracy’
In the 1870 Slater's Directory of Ireland, it would appear that Margaret Tracy now ran the Public House in the Faythe.
In the 1877 Local government and taxation of towns report, Mr.
Nicholas MacDonnell, Wexford town surveyor, is stated as proposing “to make a
sewer of Ninety perches, Irish, in length, from Tracey's to Castle-hill.” Castle Hill Street (now Kevin
Barry Street) leads from the Faythe towards South Main Street. Ninety Irish
perches are approximately a third of a mile. As such, I presume that [Matthew
then Margaret] Tracy’s [public house] was to the south, at the junction of the
Faythe and William Street.

The Temperance Question...Timothy Tracey, from Arthurstown, county Wexford...
On the 14th June 1900, Mary Tracey of Clonsharragh Mersheen & Duncannon, purchased 29a/0r/12p from the landlord Baron Templemore, which she had been renting for £21/1/6, for £380, advanced from the Land Commission and she had a £76 cash deposit.
On the 15th August 1900, William Treacy of Bryanstown, purchased 3a/2r/5p from the landlord Charles E.T. Lesliie, which he had been renting for £3.4.0, for £45 advanced from the Land Commission.
On the 16 February 1901, a sad drowning fatality occurred at Waterford on Sunday Night, when a young woman named Bridget Tracey [Bridget Tracy b. 1873], a native of New Ross, was drowned in attempting to rescue her sweetheart, who had fallen into the Suir. Five months later, her body was recovered floating in the Suir at Grace Dieu.
Tragic Occurrence
in Waterford
On Sunday a melancholy fatality occurred in the River Suir at Waterford, by which a young woman lost her life under extremely distressing circumstances. It appears that shortly after seven o'clock Bridget Tracey, aged about 28 years, employed as a domestic servant by Mr. T.P. O'Meara, Bridge street, left as was usual on Sunday evening to take a walk, and presumably to meet her sweetheart, a young man named John Doyle. Immediately after going out she met Doyle and another young couple on Grattan quay, and the four proceeded in the direction of the Dungarvan Railway station. Doyle left them to go on to one of the hulks. It is conjectured in the darkness he accidentally fell into the river. The others were attracted by the splash and his cries for help, and rushed to ascertain what had happened. Doyle, who was able to swim, suceeded in catching a rope, but in the meantime, the poor girl Tracey became excited and anxious for his safety. The other girl, named Kinahan, caught her by the dress and cautiuoned her to be careful, but in her anxiety Tracey pressed forward, and also fell into the river. There was a strong current running, and in the darkness she soon disappeared, her companions being altogether powerless to render any assisstance. Doyle was rescued, but was naturally in a shocking distressed state. The river has been dragged, but uo to the present the body has not been recovered. The deceased girl was a native of New Ross, and was 13 years in her late employment. She was shortly to have been married to Doyle.
Feb 16, 1901 Irish
Times.
In March 1903, at the monthly petty sessions held in Arthurstown, Mary Treacy was fined for a road nuisance offence.
For the 28th January 1909, there is a second reference to William Treacy of Bryanstown, purchased 3a/2r/32p from the estate of Charles Edward Tench Leslie, which he had been renting for £2.10.0, for £42 advanced from the Land Commission.

Willie
(Bill) Treacy of Wexford Willie (Bill) Treacy, a proud Clongeen man,
certainly fits into an illustrious category. In April 2009, 'Big Bill' was
most deservedly inducted in the GAA Hall of Fame in London. The presentation
was made to Willie by fellow Wexford man, Tommy Farrell, longtime Chairman of
the London Board.Willie has been a dedicated member of the famed Tomas MacCurtain
club since he emigrated to London in the halcyon days of the early 1950s. He
was the first member of the club to become an officer of London's County
Board. Since 1997, Willie has been honoured as President of the board – a
position he graces with distinction. Although totally immersed in the GAA
affairs of his adopted city, Willie has remained staunchly true to his native
Clongeen and, in particular, the local GAA Club, whom he was delighted to
witness win their first senior title in 2007. Clongeen GAA...This epic poem commemorates a
famous hurling match played in Gusserane on 17th June 1945. It is not only
the victorious who deserve to be celebrated in song. These immortal lines
were written by that outstanding Gael — Willie Treacy, of Leegaune [Leegane]
and London — who with genuine modesty has neglected to acknowledge his own
huge part in the “B” campaign. In Verse Ten; this unfortunate omission has
been corrected by a contemporary bard… (10) Our full back was Big Bill Treacy Who left those Ross men sore, That famous gent of awesome strength Cleared many a ‘certain’ score; ‘Twas the siege of Ross all over again, And the Battle of Horetown — But our heroes beldit must be toid- Never let the Parish down: https://sites.google.com/site/cullenzclan/home/cullen-jones-family/clongeen-gaa |

Alderman Thomas Henry Tracy 1921-5 |
Col. Thomas Henry Tracy, (1848-1925) M.C.
Soc. C.E., D.L.S., P.L.S., O.L.S.,
M.B.C.A.M.E., M.E.I.C. Thomas
H. Tracy, Architect and Civil Engineer, was born in London, Ontario, Canada on
June 25, 1848. His father, John Tracy, and his mother, whose maiden name was
Mary Brady, were both natives of Wexford (or Wicklow), Ireland. They were the
parents of four children, and came to Canada in 1838. They had come to London
in 1840. Thomas H. Tracy was the third child, and was reared and educated in
London. At the
age of sixteen he was apprenticed to the City Engineer, studied in the office
of the late William Robinson, for five years. As a mentor, Robinson, was a
long-standing acquaintance of his family and was also from County
Wexford. As soon as he finished his
professional education, his certificate as P.L.S., he accepted a position in
the Department of Public Works under Kivas Tully, the architect of the
Province. This was at confederation in 1867 under Sir John Curling as
commissioner, in the Department of Public Works at Toronto, where he remained
three and a-half years. Mr. Tracy went to Albany and joined George Durand at
the Albany State Capital under Fuller & Laver, the architects. In 1871,
after the great fire in Chicago, he went to that city and remained a year,
when he returned to London, but later went to Albany, N. Y., and entered the
office of the architect of the State House at that place. In 1873 he returned
once more to London, and became a partner of William Robinson, City Engineer,
the firm being Robinson, Tracy & Fairbairn. Mr. Fairbairn became deputy
minister of Public Works. This relation existed until 1878, when Mr. Robinson
retired and Mr. Tracy was elected City Engineer, and he has since filled this
position. In 1881 a resolution was passed requiring the City Engineer to give
all his time to the city's interest. Previous to this, Mr. Tracy had had a
large partnership in general work in his line. In his capacity he was also
the architect of the School Board. Captain Thomas H. Tracy served in
the 7th Battalion, Fusiliers, London, Ontario. Tracy was present at the
Battle of Batouche when Riel surrendered. Louis Riel was the Metis leader of
the Canadian Provisional Government, who objected to the transfer of the
Hudson's Bay Company's territory to Canada, feeling the land rights of the
Metis and other inhabitants would be threatened. Riel made his final stand at
the Battle of Batouche in central Saskatchewan, where he was captured on May
11, 1885. That year, he was tried and hanged by Canadian government for
treason. Riel’s winchester this rifle was donated to the Vancouver Museum, by
the wife of Lieutenant Colonel Thomas H. Tracy. Tracy was elected a Member of The Engineering
Institute of Canada (EIC) on October 11th, 1888, was a
founding member of the Vancouver Branch and was made a Life
Member on January 8th, 1924. Mr. Tracy listened to the call of the West
and became City Engineer of Vancouver in 1891 and later Consulting Engineer.
He prospered in the West and his friends in London always like to hear of his
success. In 1905, after fourteen years as City Engineer for Vancouver City,
he opened an office at 411 Howe St, as a consulting engineer. He was a
member, and Alderman, of the City of Vancouver Council from 1921 to
1925. Thomas
H. Tracy was an enthusiastic member of the Masonic Order, and a Past Master,
Past First Principal in the Chapter, and Past Eminent Preceptor of the
Knights Templar; he is a member of the Scottish Kite, 18, and Past Grand
Junior Warden of the Grand Lodge of Canada. In May 1925, St. John’s Lodge
209, presented him with a medal commemorating his fifty years as a Past
Master. He was also a member of St. John’s Chapter No. 3. He was a Captain in
the 7th Fusiliers, and served through the North-west campaign. He had charge,
as constructing engineer, of the Water-works in 1878, and is a man well known
and universally liked and esteemed. He was appointed Lieutenant-Colonel of
the 7th Fusiliers, an appointment well merited, and one which gives universal
satisfaction. Thomas H. Tracy was married in 1874 to Miss Sarah M. Bryan, who
was born near Amsterdam, N. Y.; they had one daughter, Sarah Louie and a son,
Thomas Leonard. After a brief illness, he died on October 30th 1925, and was
survived by his widow and daughter. Ref: Annual Report 1926, Association of Ontario Land
