George W. Tracey born 23rd Oct. 1864 in Kilmakevoge, parish of Glenmore, County Kilkenny GEORGE W. TRACEY
1872 - 1943 Father of Catherine and Agnes Article from the SUNDAY COURIER, POUGHKEEPSIE, NY MARCH 2, 1919 …He is great great grand-nephew of Commodore Barry, of Revolutionary fame. Mr. Tracey's mother was a great grand-niece… Always an Athlete From boyhood he took a lively interest in athletics, besting all local comers in friendly bouts with the gloves, and he is still very handy at the art of self-defense. His particular trend, however, was toward pedestrianism, and stimulated by the glory of the early achievements of Weston, then in his prime, and "Dan" O'Leary, he devoted his small leisure time to training for the track. Following closely on local successes in that direction, he began entering the larger events, which brought him into international prominence and won him fame, reaching the height of his ambition and renown as a pedestrian in October, 1901, when he won the six days, day and night, go as you please, championship of the world at Philadelphia, defeating 112 starters, including the champions of Great Britain, Germany and France. Matched in February, 1904, against George Cartwright, champion of England, for the 25 mile world's championship, he was again the winner, breaking the world's record by covering the distance in 2 hours, 34 minutes, 27 seconds. In May, 1909, he made a world's record in his feat of running 78 miles and 6 laps, on the fifth day of a 6-day, 12 hours a day race held at New York; and in the following month of the same year he had won a world's championship race of 12 hours in Madison Square Garden, New York, beating 128 men over the tan bark course to a finish. In a hard-fought championship race at Philadelphia, he made the unprecedented record of running and walking 39 consecutive hours without leaving the track. His 24-hour record of 184 miles and 5 laps, made at Springfield, Mass., in September, 1889, was a wonderful test of speed and endurance. A large number of victories stand to his credit in the 12 hour a day class and at this period of his career on the track he won many 10 mile events, being one of the few men capable of running 11 miles inside of an hour; and by the best judges he was accredited with being one of the most graceful and powerful runners the world ever saw. |

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 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.

Sarah Louise Treacy (Birmingham University, Moynalvey/Kilcoon AC & Ireland) Leinster Girls
Under16 – Gold AAI Cross Country Championships at Fintra, Killybegs, Co.
Donegal on the 14th December 2003. 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. Sara was Irish Junior Cross
Country in 2006 (AAI website) and competed in World cross country that year
and European cross country also.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. 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. 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). Of
particular note is the fact that this performance came after a 10 month
absence from competition. In 2007, She
received €4000 in the Meath Local Sports Partnership Bursary Awards and an
Athletics Bursary to Birmingham University. 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)
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. Sarah, representing Ireland, won the junior
women’s race international cross-country event in Belgium November 2008. In December 2010, Sarah Treacy won the
All-Ireland u-23 Cross-Country championships at Derry, when she
finished eighth overall and first in the u-23 event to maintain her position
as one of the top athletes in the country. She won
the title for the first time in 2009. She lead the Irish ladies u-23 team in
the u-23 European Cross-Country title in Albuferia, Portugal in December
2010. Ireland’s three
representatives in the women’s U23 event put in par performances to all
finish in the top 50, with Sara Treacy being the first Irish athlete home in
28th position in 21:34. In
January 2011, she won the 8K Midland Women’s League, Coventry. On the 20th
February 2011, she won the British Universities Indoor 1500m in
Coventry. "Irish international Sara Treacy (fourth year Medicine)
stormed ahead in the women’s 1500m, crossing the line at 4.30.05 to claim
gold, a full 2.10s ahead of her closest competitor." In June 2011 she
took both the 800m and the 1500m events in the Irish u-23 National
Championships. In July 2011, she was a finalist in the 1500m of the eighth
European U23 Athletics Championships in Ostrava, Czech Republic. In November
2011, she won her third U-23 title in a row while
winning her first senior crown in the Inter County Cross Country
Championships. She has also been named as the U-23 representative in the
Irish Team for the 18th SPAR European Cross Country Championships which takes
place in Velenje, Slovenia on 11 December 2011. |

Fodhla Treacy (TCD
& Moynalvey/Kilcloon AC) 9th December 2006 All-Ireland novice cross country
championships, Athlone Saturday: Meath Novice Ladies team took the silver
medals and Fodhla Treacy (Moynalvey) lead the Meath team home in 7th place. 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). Fodhla was a 4th
year student of Science when she won the Iain Morrisson Award. Her total of
31 Intervarsity appearances in the DUHAC vest speaks volumes about her
commitment to the club and to her training. A very consistent performer she
has been decorated with seven Intervarsity medals and has represented the
club in a number of disciplines including her favourite 800m, Cross Country,
Long Jump, Triple Jump, Pole Vault, 4x200m and 4x400m. Fodhla is obviously a
very talented athlete but the real achievement was that she saw the
importance of her contribution to the team as a whole, always willing to do
it for the greater good. Her contribution off the track was equally as
impressive. She was on the committee for three years running and held a
Captains position for two of these. |

Treacy International Career: 1960 - 1974 International Caps: 53
Position: Forward Reg Treacy (Cork Church of
Ireland ) made history in Irish
hockey when he became the first player to amass 50 caps for Ireland. A
strong, attack-minded player, Treacy had an eye for goal and developed the
reputation as a dangerous forward, who preferred to play on the left side of
the field. A player of exquisite touch and skill, the Munster man’s weaving
runs were to the delight of spectators and the torment of defenders. Treacy was one of the few players who played for Ireland in both of
the first two European Nations Cups in Brussels (1970) and Madrid (1974).

Barney J. Treacy Prominent in the civic, social and business life of Lexington, "Barney" J. Treacy, as he was familiarly and...He was born June 24, 1842, in French Lawn, parish of Ballintubber, County Roscommon, Ireland and was one of seven children ... He went to America when quite young,...His native wit always made him a jolly companion, and he was a thorough master of all the details of horse dealing. He had been engaged in the breeding and live stock business for many years, and amassed a large fortune. At one time, he was a member of the firm of Treacy & Wilson, live stock auctioneers in Kentucky. He was the owner of one of the largest breeding farms of trotting horses in the USA, the 700 acre Ashland Park Stock Farm, established in 1877. The racing stables of Barney Treacy, both trotters and thoroughbreds, were conspicuous for many years on the turf. The Blue-grass blade newspaper of Lexington, described him in January 1891 as a supporter of the Prohibition party, "Mr Treacy used to be a saloonkeeper on Dewees street in this city about as hard a part of the town as there is in it" and as "a Catholic Irishman who has made a large fortune in an honest and legitimate way Time papers report that he is going to build a $50000 house. He came to this city a poor boy worked among horses until he knew the business and is now one of the largest dealers in horses." In 1896, statements of his assets and liabilities amounted to $75,000 while his property at Ashland Park Farm and two livery stables in Lexington, including 177 horses, were expected to bring $50,000 under the hammer. Colonel or Capt. Bernard Treacy died Boston 12th September 1897, after a fall when he was entering a friend’s house, Frank C. Lappin of South End. At that time he was very prominent in Lexington affairs, being a member of the Board of Aldermen and Chairman of the Police Committee. He was buried in Lexington, 18 September 1897.

Tommy Treacy winner
of the Pierse Hurdle at Leopardstown in 2005 |
Tommy Treacy’s first winner was in an apprentice maiden on the flat at Clonmel on June 25th 1992 and four months later he rode his first winner over hurdles when the Paddy Mullins trained Sakanda scored in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown. It did not take long for Tommy to become established and just over a year later trainer Tom Foley put him up on Danoli as they combined to land a novice hurdle at Punchestown. Danoli then started favourite for a big novice event at the Leopardstown Christmas Festival but in a slowly run race he had to settle for third place behind Winter Belle. Tommy was replaced by Charlie Swan on Danoli shortly after this which proved very unfortunate for him as the horse went on to achieve great success over the next season and a half. However, Tommy began to ride more and more winners at this time and in December 1994, he rode Boro Eight to win the December Festival Hurdle at Leopardstown for his boss, Paddy Mullins, the first of a number of big race successes they shared together. That Christmas Meeting at Leopardstown also provided Tommy with big race wins on the Stephen Lambert trained Belmont King in what was then known as the Findus Handicap Chase while he also partnered Notcomplainingbut to take the Denny Juvenile Hurdle. The following year he rode Beakstown to take the Morgiana Hurdle at Punchestown for Paddy Mullins while stable companion Who’s To Say landed the Dan Moore Chase at the Fairyhouse Easter Festival. With regular jockey Charlie Swan likely to be claimed to ride for the powerful Aidan O’Brien stable, trainer Tom Foley turned to Tommy to partner stable star Danoli when the horse returned to action from a leg injury in the 1996 AIG Europe Champion Hurdle and despite being anything but 100% fit, Danoli ran a blinder to finish a close third to Collier Bay and Hotel Minella. After this excellent return Danoli and Tommy comfortably landed the Red Mills Trial Hurdle at Gowran Park the following month before finishing fourth to Collier Bay in the Smurfit Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham on ground that was probably too quick for him. When Danoli returned to action later on that season, Philip Fenton rode him to win his first steeplechase at Clonmel in November before Tommy was re-united with him when taking a winners event at Naas a couple of weeks later. Aimed at the Drinmore Chase at Fairyhouse in early December, unfortunately Danoli fell at the third fence on that occasion but all that was forgotten about when he won the Denny Gold Medal Novice Chase at Leopardstown later that month. Now a leading fancy for the Arkle Trophy at Cheltenham, Danoli was fully expected to win the Arkle Perpetual Cup at Leopardstown in late January but unfortunately he fell early in the race leaving English raider Mulligan to score under Adrian Maguire. Just two weeks later, trainer Tom Foley took a really brave step in running Danoli in the Hennessy Cognac Gold Cup at Leopardstown with Tommy on board despite the fact that he was only a novice and had fallen in two of his three previous outings over fences. However, under a brilliant and courageous ride, Danoli took up the running early on the second circuit and kept going long enough to defeat two previous Gold Cup winners, Jodami and Imperial Call, in what remains one of the most exciting races ever held at Leopardstown. Unfortunately, the going at Cheltenham on Gold Cup Day was much too fast for him and Danoli came to grief again when well beaten behind Mr Mulligan. The Hennessy Cognac Gold Cup victory was the last time that Tommy Treacy rode Danoli to victory but this unassuming young man always lists the horse as one of his favourites and he certainly helped to propel him into the limelight. Tommy rode three consecutive winners of the Jameson Gold Cup Novice Hurdle at Fairyhouse on Easter Monday as Castlekellyleader (1996), Gazalani (1997) and Unarmed (1998) all obliged while Castlekellyleader also won the Stanley Cooker Champion Novice Hurdle at the Punchestown Festival that same season a race in which he partnered Arthur Moore’s Native Upmanship to victory in 1999. Other big races successes in Tommy’s career were the 1998 Smithwicks Beer Handicap Hurdle at Listowel on Cairncross, the 1998 Troytown Chase on Arthur Moore’s Ryhane, the 1998 Irish Field Novice Chase on English raider Gutteridge while he also rode the winner of the Powers Gold Cup on two occasions with Daniel O’Connell’s Love The Lord scoring in 1996 and Tom Taaffe’s Delphi Lodge obliging two years later. Delphi Lodge also won the Fortria Chase at Navan later that year while Jim Dreaper’s Saxophone took the William Neville Novice Chase at Leopardstown in 1999. Al O’Connell’s Glens Music triumphed in the 2003 Nas Na Riogh Chase at Naas while he also won a Lismullen Hurdle on Sean Treacy’s Rose Of Inchiquin. Tommy Treacy enjoyed one of the biggest successes of his career when riding the Jessica Harrington trained Studmaster to victory in the Pierse Hurdle at Leopardstown in 2005 although it should be remembered that this quiet young man has been knocking in the winners on a regular basis for well over a decade or so. With 16 years experience at 33 years of age, in what is a tremendously difficult occupation, behind him, Tommy Treacy is now regarded as one of the elder statesmen in the weighing room. |

David Treacy of Dublin is a Gaelic football and hurling player for Cuala club and Dublin. In
2006, David won the Dublin Minor Football Championship and the Leinster Minor
Club Football Championship with Cuala. In
2007, he won a Leinster Minor Hurling Championship medal for Dublin. David
scored 0-02 frees in the final against Kilkenny in Dublins 2-14 to 1-10
victory. “Treacy
fires Dub Colleges past Castlecomer In
2008, David Treacey, is one of the
biggest prospects in Leinster, for the Dublin Colleges hurling team. He plays as a centre-forward on the Dublin's minor team and is
a reputed scoring machine. Treacy’s hat-trick not enough to save Dublin Tipperary 2-19 Dublin 4-11 Michael Ellard , Irish Examiner Monday, March 30,
2009 In 2009, he was a Gaelic Players Association (GPA) nominee for the
Hurling team of the year and Dublin Young Player of the Year award from Dublin Hurling Supporters
Club In July 2010, despite injuries, he was part of the winning team in the Leinster U-21 final against Wexford, scoring two
points from frees. In February 2011, injured
star David Treacy insists he has "a lot of ground to make up" if he
is to challenge for a place in the Dublin attack. He is currently recovering
from surgery in the wake of rupturing the anterior cruciate ligament. In June
2011, in the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship semi-final against Galway,
Treacy had just recovered from a cruciate knee injury and was making his
return to the Dublin team for the first time in 18 months, but he only lasted
6 minutes before having to be taken off with a hamstring injury. He was ruled out for
at least 4-5weeks and missed the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship final
which Dublin lost to Kilkenny. On the 24th of July, he returned as a
substitution, when Dublin defeated Limerick, to earn them a place in the all
Ireland semi-final against Tipperary. In August, he suffered a new hamstring
injury in training and has been ruled out of playing for the rest of the season. In July 2011 he was named ‘NADA Athlete of the Month’. http://www.nada.ie/blog/david_treacy_video_interview/ 6th January 2012: Hurling forward, David Treacy, says he is optimistic that the lengthy rebuilding job he has undertaken on his troublesome hamstrings should finally lift the injury fog which has blighted his inter-county career. The Cuala sharpshooter has been undergoing an intensive rehabilitation job after suffering two serious hamstring tears in 2011 to add to a string of similar previous blows which has hampered his career since making his debut for the Dublin seniors back in 2009. Management are hopeful that Treacy will be in a position to take his place in the Dublin forward line when they begin their Allianz League campaign in six weeks time but are understandably cautious. |

From the late 1950’s until 1972 there were two hurling clubs in Thomastown – Thomastown and Thomastown Rangers. The Rangers club drew mainly from the southern and western sides of the parish though the town and other parts of the parish were always represented. The Forristal, Neill, Bookle, O’Keeffe, Treacy, Donnelly and McEntee families are those who most readily come to mind when one thinks back on the players and officials of the Rangers Club. |

Carrickshock
GAA Kilkenny In the 1913-’14 era a senior hurling medal tournament was run to raise funding for the building of a monument in Carrickshock to commemorate three local men killed at the ‘Battle of Carrickshock’ which took place on December 14, 1831. The three who lost their lives in that engagement, which was part of the Tithe Wars with England, were Treacy, Power and Phelan. That monument, outside the village of Hugginstown, was eventually erected at a cost of Ł21 in 1926 – a not insubstantial sum in those times. Billy Treacy Carrickshock - 1951 Winner

George Tracey of Dublin, an amateur racer. In October 2006, he took a clear win in the Super Final Mondello Park Rallycross. He completed the British group going on a Caribbean adventure at the end of November 2006 to take part in the inaugural Barbados Rallycross International, bringing to three the examples of Ford Rallycross Supercars in the field. He has contested all his home country's major rallies, driving machines including a Peugeot 206 World Rally Car, and travels regularly to compete on the Isle of Man and in Europe. In 2008, regular international traveller George Tracey entering a three-car outfit sponsored by 123.ie and motorsportmad.com for himself, son George Junior and John McCluskey. Tracey made it to two finals from nine outings last year and expects the experience will stand him in good stead as he, his son and McCluskey set out on what he says is "a serious go at the championship." Tracey's fleet of French-made supercars includes a Peugeot 307CC, a Citroen Xsara and a Citroen C4 though a final decision on the allocation of cars has yet to be made. The team, which will also have the use of a new three-car transporter and will carry the colours of video website MotorsportMad.com, will be run at events by Tony Bardy. Tracey Jnr had originally been expected to drive a Division One-A car this year, but with a Division One car available, the 17-year-old will now get a shot at the top class immediately. "I don't want Georgie to have any pressure on him or expectations to achieve a championship result so I'll let him race one of the cars when it's available," said Tracey Snr. In November 2011, for the third Mondello Park Rallycross in a row, George Tracey completely dominated the day, with his Citroen Xsara winning both the Supercar A Final and the Super Final. |

2009 Mayo: Swimmers make the far shore
Of the twenty-five people who set off last weekend to swim across Lough
Mask from Cushlough in Ballinrobe to Cappaduff in Tourmakeady, eleven completed
the swim. And claiming the honour of being the first person to have swum across
Lough Mask was James Sweeney from Castlebar. All twenty-five reached the
half-way mark but on passing Devenish Island they were hit by a strong
south-westerly wind. After this anyone who was struggling approaching the
three-hour mark was advised to leave the water to avoid hypothermia. The other
ten to complete the swim were Angela Collins, Damien (Delgado) McGreal, Kevin
Murray, Padraig Marrey, John Craddock, James Brady, Tom Treacey (Ballinrobe),
Eughene Hoade, Peter Tuohy, Nick Skehan, Patricia Tuohy, Seb Locteau, James
Sweeney, and Padraig Rocliffe.
