§ Mr. THOMAS F. SMYTH asked the Chief Secretary if he can state why it is that Mrs. Jane Treacey, who resides at Drumingra, Keshcarrigan, county Leitrim, has not as yet got her pension, although it was passed for the second time by the Carrick-on-Shannon pension committee on 8th October, 1909, when she produced a baptismal certificate that she was then in her seventy-first year, and, although she has written to the Local Government Board and the local pension officer repeatedly about the matter, she has never got her pension book?

§ Mr. BIRRELL No appeal appears to have come before the Local Government Board in this case. The payment of pensions is not a matter over which I have any control.

Tracey of Glenfarne

My name is Alison and I am hoping you or your parents can help me. My husband is Patrick Tracey and he has a brother Nigel Felix Tracey. His late mum was Nan Shortt of Corracloon and his late Dad was Frank Tracey of Glenfarne. His Dads parents were Mary and James Treacy who are both buried in Glenfarne graveyard. His Dads brother Felix is still alive now 84 and can’t tell us much about his parents. Would your folks know anything about my husband’s grandfather James Treacy (he is the one buried Glenfarne) where he came from or who his parents were? My husband’s mum was Nan Shortt and her parents were Patrick Shortt of Corracloon (son of Margaret and John Short) and Lizzie McGowan (daughter of Bridget & James McGowan) of Kiltyclogher. That’s as far as we can get on that side as we only found grave of Elizabeth McGowan & Patrick Shortt last month in Kilty graveyard. Nan used to say that Phil McGowan who ran the pub in Kilty with his wife Delia was a cousin of hers but we don’t know how far removed. She also said the Keanys were cousins. Can you parents or grandparents make any sense of this that I have written? It’s the Treacy/Tracey side we are stuck with big time !!
