The
Traceys of Meath can trace their history back to the beginning of historical
records, as Meath formed part of the territory of the Uí Bairrche.

At the assizes of Trim, of the 8th September, no less than 27 have been found guilty of high treason. Tracy, who is one of the persons convicted at the above assizes, is a man of some property, and of a respectable family. Thomas Tracy was tried for high Treason, in associating with and arming men to assist the French in case of an invasion. At a meeting of 150 men on the 2nd of March, each man was to raise seventeen men to assist the French on their Landing. Tracy was made a commander of seventeen.

Moynalvey
Moynalvey/Kilcloon Athletics Club
The History of Moynalvey/Kilcloon Athletics Club spans more than two decades. Moynalvey/Kiltale Athletic Club was founded in 1982 by John Durkan and Jim Treacy. While strong links still exist between the parishes of Moynalvey and Kiltale through their respective GAA clubs, the athletics club spread its wings to encompass the parish of Kilcloon and the club as it is known today came into existence c.1989. The present president of the club is Liam Treacy. Five athletes from Moynalvey/Kilcloon A.C. have been chosen to represent Ireland at international level, the most recent of these being Sarah Treacy. Daniel Treacy (DCU & Moynalvey/Kilcloon AC) Daniel is now at
DCU and a key member of their athletics team. ESB National League at Santry 30 Jul 2007: 1500m Daniel Treacy (Moynalvey) 5th 4.02.2. 4x400: Blaine Rennicks (Bohermeen) Emmet Reilly (Navan) Daniel Treacy (Moynalvey) and Niall Matthews (Navan) 4th 3.31.07. All-Ireland novice cross country championships, Athlone Saturday 9th December 2006: Daniel Treacy was Meath's only athlete in the boys under 19 and he ran well to finish 7th. All Ireland Inter County cross country championships, Dungarvan Co Waterford 26th November 2006: The Meath Junior Men produced a great team effort to take the Gold medal, lead home by Daniel Treacy in 14th place with all six runners in the top 35. Fodhla Treacy (TCD
& Moynalvey/Kilcloon AC) Fodhla won the
Irish universities indoor 800m in December 2006 and places 2nd twice in the
outdoor 800m during her 4 years at Trinity (Graduated in 2007). All-Ireland novice cross country championships, Athlone
Saturday 9th December 2006: Meath Novice Ladies team took the silver medals
and Fodhla Treacy (Moynalvey) lead the Meath team home in 7th place. |
Sarah Louise Treacy (Birmingham University, Moynalvey/Kilcoon AC & Ireland) Sarah,
representing Ireland, won the junior women’s race international cross-country
event in Belgium November 2008. She also represented Ireland in the World Junior Track Championships in July 2008 (8th in her heat), the World cross country championships in March 2008 recording the highest
placing of the Irish athletes finishing mid-way in the junior race in 32nd,
won the Celtic Cross Country International on 12th January 2008 and 34th
in the European cross country championships in December 2007. She won division 1 of the National Track and Field Finals July 2008. She received €
4000 in the 2007 Meath Local Sports Partnership Bursary Awards. Manchester University Cross
Country Relays, 6th Oct 2007: Sara (18) wore the red and blue colours of
Birmingham University for the first time, as she recently commenced studying
medicine there on a full sports scholarship. The Manchester University relays
drew almost 300 third-level athletes from all over the United Kingdom with
132 participants in the women’s event alone. Sara, was the second fastest on
the day (12 minutes and 4 seconds) behind her Birmingham University
club-mate, Stacey Johnson (11:58) Of particular note is the fact
that this performance came after a 10 month absence from competition. She
was a member of a very promising Irish junior cross country squad which
finished ninth in the European Junior Cross Country Championship at San
Giorgio su Legnano, Italy in December 2006. Sara
picked up an injury shortly after the European Cross Country, and was
subsequently unable to compete in the spring cross country events. This piece
of bad luck ruled her out of contention for another Irish School’s Cross
Country title, having already won a record breaking 4 in-a-row previous to
that for her former school, The King’s Hospital. Sara’s transition from
schools’ to university level competition will no doubt have been made even
more enjoyable by the fact that she out-paced two of the UK’s top young
athletes, Non Stanford (12:13 ) who has trained with double Olympic gold
medallist Kelly Holmes, and 3000m specialist Olivia Kenney (12:55). Sara was Irish
Junior Cross Country in 2006 (AAI website) and competed in World cross
country that year and European cross country also. All Ireland Inter County cross country championships, Dungarvan Waterford 26th November 2006: Sara Treacy (Moynalvey) was Meath’s best placed runner and took the silver medal. The Leinster Cross Country championships, Belvedere House
Mullingar 23rd October 2006: The best individual Meath result of the day was
Sarah Treacy (Moynalvey) who had an emphatic win in the girls under 18 event.
She won the Celtic International in Wales in January 2005 for girls under 17 and won the Schools International Cross Country in April again in Wales for the top under17 schoolgirls in Ireland England Scotland and Wales. She also won the Irish Schools under17 1500m in Tullamore in June 2005 and the Athletics Ireland u17 1500 in July 2005 in Tullamore. She was second in the Schools International 1500 in July also in Tullamore. Leinster Girls
