Kate Tracy of Dublin

 

It was on the advice of Michael Collins that I took over a restaurant called the West End at 40 Parkgate Street, a few months after the arrival of the Black and Tans... I installed myself there and things turned out as expected. I had a Cumann na mBan assistant, Máire Gleeson, who is now dead, and another girl, Katie Tracy. They were both very reliable.

1920...Molly Gleeson... who now owned the Stad Restaurant in Frederick Street, had taken the Republican side... Arnott [ex Black and Tan] was down and out and another girl, Kate Tracy, and myself put him up for a night and gave him his fare back to England... He kept up a correspondence with Kate Tracy and told her that his father had settled him up in a poultry farm. He was an educated fellow and was very nice. He got up early the following morning and went off to the boat before we were up. He sent Kate several snapshots of himself and his hens and returned the two pounds we had given him...

https://catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000655339

 

One of the Cumann na mBan girls from Wicklow, Kathleen Treacy, whilst visiting me in the jail at Wicklow a couple of days after my transfer then, informed me that there was a gentleman going around the comity wearing a Fáinne and stating that he was an officer from General Headquarters. He informed them in Wicklow town that he was sent down from G.H.Q. to reorganize the county and convene a meeting, for the purpose of appointing somebody to replace me and take reprisals for my arrest. I immediately got suspicions, as I had never notified G.H.Q. of my arrest, nor had any notice of my arrest appeared in the press and I told her to let the lads outside know and be extra cautious.

File dates: 6 April 1935 - 8 November 1972

File relates to Denis J. Treacy's receipt of a military service pension in respect of his service with the IRA in the service periods between 1 April 1920 and 30 September 1923, during the War of Independence, Truce Period and Civil War. Applicant also claimed unsuccessfully for service in the periods between 23 April 1916 and 31 March 1920. During the War of Independence the subject claims to have been involved in action in County Kerry including the burning of the Ardfert RIC Barracks in April 1920. He states that he was arrested that month for holding up mails at Ballylahive [Ballylahiff] and detained for seven weeks. His referee, Maurice Nolan, states that Treacy was imprisoned at Cork Jail in April-May 1920. Treacy claims to have been involved in an attack on Ferrit RIC Barracks on 1 June 1920. In July and August 1920 Treacy prepared ambushes for the RIC and was involved in ambush at Beenreagh, O'Dorney on 1 November 1920, which resulted in the deaths of two 'Tans' (RIC) personnel. Maurice Nolan names the RIC men as Corby and Madden. Denis Treacy was arrested again on 8 December 1920 and interred in Ballykinlar, County Down, Northern Ireland until 15 August 1921. Treacy states that at the start of the Civil War period he was a member of the Active Service Unit, operating in Counties Kerry and Limerick and was involved on attacks at Listowel, County Kerry and on Limerick City. He was arrested by 'Free State troops' in November 1922 and interned at Harepark until October 1923. In 1933 Treacy applied for a wound pension or gratuity in respect of being 'brutally beaten' by British forces in November 1920, at Ballymcaquinn, Abbeydorney, County Kerry, prior to his arrest in December 1920. He states that he suffered a fractured skull and rupture of his stomach as a result; the medical examination found him to also be suffering from Phthisis [tuberculosis]. Treacy was granted a pension in respect of his injuries. In 1937 he sought an increase in his wound pension and claimed that his tuberculosis was caused by his service and terms of imprisonment. He was granted an increased pension; the subject died in 1940. The subject had married Hannah [Joanna] O’Connor on 10 September 1929 at Saint Francis Catholic Church, Goston, Manchester, England. She was granted a gratuity on Treacy's death and remarried on 22 November 1941, becoming Hannah Shaughnessy. Her second marriage precluded her from receiving any widow's allowance or pension. File contains material relating to Denis J. Treacy's pensions; certified copy of entry in marriage book (10 September 1929); application for a wound pension or gratuity (8 April 1933); typed transcript of sworn statement given by Denis J. Treacy to Advisory Committee (Military Services Pensions Act, 1934) on 15 July 1935; handwritten reference letter from Maurice Nolan (8 August 1935); handwritten letters from Denis J. Treacy regarding his pension (1 November 1935 - 6 February 1936); application for wound or disease pension or gratuity (4 February 1938); medical reports (6 November 1935 – 8 December 1938) and representations from Tom McEllistrim TD (3 December 1947) and P. Finucane TD (16 March 1960). Also material relating to settlement and closure of pension account and query from his wife relating to pension (1 May 1972). Some material relating to subject's children closed for Data Protection reasons.

1922 Republican Internment and the Prison Ship Argenta

“Lives were complicated in many ways for former internees and their families. Losing his father at the age of four years, one son recalls very little of his father who had been interned. The child’s mother seldom spoke of her husband, Edward Tracey, who had been born in the United States to County Tyrone parents who had emigrated in the nineteenth century. Edward Tracey was quite young when his own father died and he was sent to live with his aunts in Glenelly Valley in County Tyrone. As a teenager, without paternal influence, he sought camaraderie in the South Derry Brigade of the IRA, just over the county border from his residence. Eventually listed and interned, he was to spend a part of his youth as a political prisoner of the Northern Government from 1922 to 1923. His conditional release expelled him from Northern Ireland and forced him to sell the family farm. As a result, he moved to County Donegal in the Free State. Nevertheless, the feelings of abandonment lingered:

Like his counterparts he was offered a commission in the new Army or a post in the police (Gardai); these he both declined because he found both organisations to be of a State which did not respect his political views and a State which sold him and his comrades out and left them to rot in prison.

Frank E. Tracey, son, 1 September 1994 and 19 November 1997 letters, Co. Donegal.

Mark Tracey, grandson, 13 December 1997 letter, Middle East.

“Tracey was offered employment as a porter at the local mental hospital where he provided security from the gate lodge. His family went to live with him there. An early death due to peritonitis may be attributed to his living conditions while interned. Two of his four sons died the following year. Destitute, Susannah (née McCullagh) Tracey face poverty without employment or pension. The intervention of Neill T. Blaney, TD in the Dáil (Parliament) of the Southern Government, allowed her to continue residing with her two remaining young sons in the gate lodge at the hospital as a gatekeeper.

Tracy, Captain of Cranagh, Co. Tyrone

On 12th July 1922 Hugh O'Rourke and I procured a horse and cart and started for Granagh near Plumbridge to take a load of ammunition to Greencastle. At Granagh there was a large dump of arms stored which had been sent in from Donegal some time previously for use in Northern Ireland. When we arrived at Cranagh we were met by a man named Tracy who was captain of the local company.

Mr. Hughes Mr. Hughes

Mr. Hughes asked the Minister for Defence if he will say when Mr. Eugene Tracey, Fenagh, County Carlow, who made application for a pension under the Military Service Pensions Act may expect to hear of a decision in his case.

Mr. Aiken (for the Minister for Defence) Mr. Aiken (for the Minister for Defence)

Mr. Aiken (for the Minister for Defence): In the case of the application made under the Military Service Pensions Act, 1934, by Mr. Eugene Tracey, Fenagh, County Carlow, the finding of the referee is that on the evidence before him Mr. Tracey is not a person to whom the Act applies and he was informed accordingly. Mr. Tracey lodged an appeal for revision of the finding but the referee has not yet completed his investigations in the matter.

 

Father Tracey, Redemptorist Order, Mayo

 

...1921 [Mayo]...A mission was being held in the Leenane Church, conducted by two priests, Fathers Tracey and Cotter, of the Redemptorist Order. They were very sympathetic to the cause...Not long after this, we ran into the same too priests, but not in the confessional. We went to Cornamona [Cong] to destroy a bridge, and they were conducting a mission there. The Pastor, Father John O'Grady, was from Louisburgh, Co. Mayo...but Fathor O'Grady said he would stand on the bridge and let it be blown up under his feet. To this, Father Tracey said: "Good-bye, John! See you in Heaven ... maybo!"...

James Treacy of Meenross Moynoe Co. Clare

 

...The day after Martin Counihan's violent death, in the townland of Meenross outside Scariff town, sixty-one-year-old farmer James Treacy [of Meenross Moynoe] died [28 October 1920]. Unlike Counihan, no reference was made to Treacy in any police report and months later  the registrar, Daniel Reidy, simply recorded that his death was the result of 'carcinoma of stomach'. Treacy had suffered for nine months and towards the end of his life was bedridden for some time. Weeks earlier, as violent raids intensified across north- east Clare, British forces arrived at his thatched home close to the River Shannon, where he lived with his wife, Margaret, and five children. During the raid, despite his obvious frailty, James Treacy was manhandled and viciously thrown out of his bed, while the British forces searched for guns or evidence of republican activity. It is difficult to dismiss the obvious impact of such an attack on an already feeble man. His daughter Mary, who was there during the raid, spoke often of 'how weak and frail he was and how cruel they [British forces] were...

...Among those who drove to Killaloe was twenty-seven-year-old Patrick Treacy from Meenross in Scariff, whose father had died only weeks before hand, a death expedited by a vicious attack by British forces during a raid on his home...

Tir-Chonaill Flying Column

 

Neil "Plunkett" O’Boyle’s Tir-Chonaill Flying Column which operated in North/West Wicklow from November 1922 to May 1923

 

The column consisted of Séamas Ó Cáinte, Mícheál Ó Coileáin, Criostóir de Barra, Pádraig Raghallaigh, Bearnárd Corcáin, Dan Mac aoidh, F. Plléimeann, Pádraig Ó Seanáin, Séamas Mac Murchú, Pádraig Ó Feargaill, Séamas Ó Maoilaoidh, Séan Mac Reámoinn agus Seán Treasaigh (of Mountbellew, Galway).

 

The column was arrested on the 15th May 1923 in a house near Granabeg, Ballyknockan districk. Plunkett was killed and the rest were taken prisoner.

Escape from Tintown

When Tintown No. 1 opened we were moved there from Mountjoy. The Staters had learned quickly and were getting their prison system organised....Immediately a plan was hatched to escape by digging a tunnel and making our way under the wire. They were building Tintown No. 2, on our right, and Tintown No. 3 on our left, so we had to complete our escape before they were finished. Finally the night of the escape arrived. The O.C. in each hut decided who was to go. Men from other huts who were chosen were replaced with men from our hut...At first I was in favour of making for the West, but I was told there was better cover to be had by going for the Wicklow hills. With me at this time was Battie Cryan of Westport, Jim Treacy from Galway, and a man from Laherdaun, Co. Mayo, called Flanagan. The escape was a great success even though it was a pity that more didn’t get out. It gave a great lift to the fellows that were left behind.

...We hoped to join up with a Column under a fellow named Neil Boyle. This was his real name but he was always known as Sean Plunkett. He had escaped earlier from Newbridge and, although a stranger in the area, had gathered a Column around him. We were able to locate them around Valleymount.

...Myles Reilly of Granabeg, who was a member of the column for four months recallsj some of the circumstances of that Tuesday morning although he himself was not present, having been arrested with three others in a house near Valleymount the previous Sunday . The troops may not have been sure Boyle was in the house he says but they were raiding every house. There was an old man dozing on a settle bed in the  kitchen. That dog’s barking, said he, and he wouldn’t bark if there wasn’t somebody about. Paddy Farrell, who was sentry that night, went to the door, He fired at soldiers advancing up the boreen. They opened up with everything then. Myles recalls Tom Heavey well, and JimTreacy. Others that he listed were Redmond from Firhouse, Fitz gerald from Saggart, Seamus McMurrough from Leitrim, another local man Burke  and Dan McGee from Falcarragh. You would hear McGee anywhere when he roared forth, my name is Pat O ’Donnell and I come from Donegal. There was Christy Barry  too: now I am not sure if he was from Kildare or Meath, he adds.

Sir,—The caption—’Women continued to play an active role in the War of Independence’—under the photograph on page 41 of the last issue (Autumn 1996) is misleading on two counts. In the first place, it does not depict a War of Independence flying column but a Civil War one—the Third Battalion flying column (‘Plunkett’s Own’), No.2 (South Dublin) Brigade. Secondly, it is a ‘posed’ photograph: there is no evidence that any of the women depicted were ever ‘active’ and in the course of my research I have never come across references to women operating in any flying column during the Tan or Civil War.
    The photograph was taken most probably by May Mooney, one of the Mooney sisters, in the kitchen garden (now the car park) of Mooney’s Pub, Manor Kilbride (near Blessington), County Wicklow, on or about St Patrick’s Day, 1923. Included in the photograph (from left to right) are: (front row) Betty Mooney, Annie Mooney, Niall ‘Plunkett’ O’Boyle, Paddy Farrell, Peg Mooney; (centre row) Jim Redmond, Jim Treacy, Tom Heavey, Bride Mooney; (back row) Kay Mooney, Dan Whelan, Kit Barry, Bernard Corcoran, Paddy Reilly, Seamus McMorrow, Dan McGee, unknown. The column is well armed as evidenced by the Lee Enfield .303 rifles. Betty Mooney (not fully visible in the print used in the last issue) is holding Tom Heavey’s Thompson sub-machine gun. Annie and Peg Mooney each hold a Lee Enfield and Bride Mooney a revolver. Kay Mooney, a qualified nurse, who may have rendered medical assistance to the column from time to time is unarmed. Niall ‘Plunkett’ O’Boyle is wearing the uniform tunic of Sir Bryan Mahon, whose residence the column had burned down. Jim Redmond, Jim Treacy and Tom Heavey are holding what appears to be the tailgate of a small farmcart upon which is written in chalk: ‘No 3 Column Dublin 2’.
    This West Wicklow-based IRA flying column, which operated from about October 1922 until its capture in May 1923, was a mixture of Northerners, Dubliners, West of Ireland men and locals, among them escapees from the Curragh and Newbridge internment camps. It operated under the jurisdiction of Third Battalion, No.2 (South Dublin) Brigade, under the command of Gerry Boland, later a Fianna Fáil Minister for Justice and known at the time as ‘Trotsky’, on account of his exposition of left-wing views. The column commander, Niall O’Boyle, had escaped with a number of others from Newbridge camp and had been sent to West Wicklow where, under the name ‘Sean Plunkett’, he gathered the local Volunteers under his command attacking Free State Army positions and burning local ‘big houses’, among them Mullaghboden House, residence of Sir Bryan Mahon, and Mauds of Tinode.
    The flying column was eventually surrounded at Nortons’ farmhouse in the early morning of 15 May 1923 by a Free State Army raiding party under the command of Colonel Felix McCorley and after a brief exchange of fire a parlay was arranged. According to eye witnesses, O’Boyle approached McCorley with his arms raised in surrender. McCorley asked, ‘Who are you’, and on being told, ‘I’m Sean Plunkett’, McCorley shot him through the left eye and again in the side of the head as he lay dying. A monument to ‘Plunkett’ O’Boyle can be seen at Norton’s (now Nolans) of Knocknadroose at the Reilly family grave in nearby Hollywood. He is buried in his native Kincasslagh, County Donegal. Following his death the photograph, in postcard form, circulated freely in the area. I obtained a copy from another column member (not in the photograph), the late Myles Reilly of Hollywood whom I interviewed on a number of occasions before his death, along with Seamus Mooney of Manor Kilbride. Other information is taken from Padraig Ó Baoighill’s Oglach na Rossan, Niall Pluincead Ó Baoighill (1994) and Uinseann McEoin’s Survivers (1987).—Yours etc.,

Jerry (Jeremiah) Treacy, Company C.O., E Company, 1 Battalion, East Limerick Brigade [also named as Joseph and James – Note: 1901 & 1911 Census have Joseph & Jerry as brothers]

 

In the latter end of May [1920] with Dan Grace, Battalion Adjutant, Danny Ryan, known as Danny Simon, Brigade Engineer at a. later date, Nicholas O'Dwyer, Brigade 0/C of Engineers, Jerry Treacy, Company Captain of Pallas, Jim Carthy and Mick Carthy of Doon, Jim Gorman and Paddy Costello of Holyford and others, I took part in an attack on Kimallock R.I.C. Barracks which had been planned by the Brigade Staff and Battalion Staff of the area.

Witness: William McCarthy, Officer IRA, Limerick, 1921

About this time I also received a request from Jerry Treacy, Nicker of the East Limerick Brigade to come to Nicker, Pallasgreen, to deal with the wife of a man named O'Connell who was suspected of giving information to the R.I.C.

About this time also we received information from. Jerry Treacy, Nicker, Pallasgreen, to the effect that District Inspector McGettrick Of Pallasgreen R.I.C. usually went to 10 a.m. Mass at Nicker on Sundays and left his Ford motor car outside the church...Ned Treacy of Hollycross [see above]

Witness: Morgan Portley, Captain IRA, Limerick, 1921

Jerry Treacy, Nicker, Pallasgreen [see below]...The Brigade 0/C. East Limerick, insisted that as the car was taken in his area it should be handed over to him. This course was eventually agreed to and, about ten days later, Ned Treacy of Holycross arrived with a driver at my house and I went with them and handed over the car.

Witness: Morgan Portley, Captain IRA, Limerick, 1921

 

...[June] 1920...Lieutenant William Allinson White...had effected the arrest of Jeremiah Treacy, the local company commandant. Treacy had been commandant of the Pallasgrean Company but on the night of 10 June, White spotted a bicycle outside Buckley’s house at Corelish, near Passasgrean. When Treacy emerged from the house, White held him up and searched him. The search uncovered a revolver and four rounds of ammunition. Treacy was subsequently sentenced to a prison term which he served in Liverpool (County 904/216 British Archives Kew).

Joseph Tracy, of Bunavie, county Limerick

Jul 2, 1920 (FJ) English Justice

In Ireland. The following official report has been issued by the Military Headquarters, Park Gate:-

Joseph Tracey, civilian, of Bunavie, Co. Limerick, was tried by court-martial at Cork, on 23rd June, on charges of having a revolver and ammunition without a permit. He was found guilty and sentenced to eighteen months imprisonment with hard labour.

 

Carrying Arms, Londonderry. HC Deb 15 July 1920 vol 131 cc2566-8

§ 11. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY asked the Chief Secretary of Ireland whether William Kane, Samuel King, Thomas Bramble, Samuel Fleming, and John Lappin, all Ulster Volunteers of Londonderry, were tried recently by special Crimes Court in Londonderry before Major Brett, resident magistrate, and Mr. R. Sparrow, resident magistrate, on a charge of carrying rifles and ammunition; whether they were found guilty and sentenced to a fine of £5 each; whether Joseph Trany [Joseph Tracy], of Bunavie, county Limerick, was tried by district court-martial at Cork on 23rd June, 1919, on a charge of having a revolver and ammunition; and whether he was found guilty and sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment with hard labour?

§ Sir H. GREENWOOD The prisoners referred to in the first part of the question pleaded guilty and were fined as stated, but I would point out that the hon. and gallant Member, while mentioning all the cases of Ulster Volunteers charged with carrying arms during the Derry riots, and implying that they were given preferential treatment, has omitted to mention that several persons of the opposite faction were arrested in exactly the same circumstances, were brought before the same Court, charged with the same offence, and received the same sentence. The circumstances in the case of James Tracy—not Joseph Trany, as mentioned in the question—were quite different.

§ Lieut. - Commander KENWORTHY Was not James Tracy punished in this way long before there were political murders or assassinations of police in Ireland, and does the right hon. Gentleman not think a better example should be made of men of all faiths and factions carrying rifles, in Londonderry?

§ Mr. C. PALMER Does the right hon. Gentleman not think it is quite natural that Ulster men should arm themselves against the dastardly assassinations of the Sinn Feiners?

§ Sir H. GREENWOOD With reference to the supplementary question put by the hon. and gallant Gentleman, I cannot, without notice, say when James Tracy was sentenced, but I am convinced that the sentence of 18 months' hard labour for what was in effect threatening the life of an officer was not too severe.

§ Lieut. - Commander KENWORTHY May I ask why these men of different faith in Londonderry are only fined for carrying rifles and ammunition, especially in view of the heavy loss of life in Londonderry, and whether the right hon. Gentleman is going to take possession of the rifles scattered all over that unhappy city?

§ Sir H. GREENWOOD The charge was that of carrying rifles and ammunition, and the sentence was given by a Resident Magistrate, and I cannot interfere with the sentence of any judicial officer in Ireland.

§ Lieut. - Commander KENWORTHY Is the right hon. Gentleman now going to take possession of these rifles scattered all over Londonderry?

§ Mr. SPEAKER The hon. and gallant Member must give notice of that.

John Rupert Treacy, [Professor] of Youghal, County Cork, Limerick, Dublin and Sligo. [see Professor John Rupert Treacy]

 

A Sinn Féin supporter was John R. Treacy, a native of Youghal, County Cork, who taught in Limerick and Dublin before coming to Sligo in 1904. In Dublin, he was closely associated with William Rooney, the poet, and Arthur Griffith in the early days of the Sinn Fein movement, helping to edit the "United Irishman". He taught in Summerhill College and in the Technical School for 25 years. He had been involved with Griffith and William Rooney in Sinn Féin while in Dublin and was one of the “Apostles of Sinn Féin” in Sligo. In July 1918, he was under surveillance and in August 1918, he was arrested for reading the Sinn Féin manifesto and placed in Sligo prison. A week later he was moved to Galway. On September 24th at a court martial in Renmore Barracks Galway, Tracey was found guilty and sentenced to two years imprisonment. He was released at the beginning of October on medical advice. When he arrived at Sligo Station he was met by a large crowd of Sinn Féiners and escorted to his home. In December 1920, he was again arrested and at the end of January he was moved to Derry. In January 1921, he was moved from Derry jail to Ballykinlar Camp, Co. Down.  In the camp he gave classes in Shorthand and Book-keeping Classes.  In October 1921, after 3 weeks on parole after long internment he was released.  During these times, his wife suffered greatly from the disturbances caused by the attentions of the authorities. He died in November 1929. Sympathy was extended to his widow and family, as well as his sister-in-law, Mrs Tracey, Catherine Street, of Youghal, and his nephew, nieces and cousins in that town.

I was a member of the Gaelic League very young. I used to collect at Church gates, and walked in processions. When I was at business in Sligo I was in correspondence with Griffith about my brother's cartoons and he wrote to me very kindly about them. I and Professor Tracey were the only people who bought his paper in Sligo. Arthur Griffith told me to get in touch with the Professor. Later on I sent a few poems to him and he published them in his paper...

Service periods between 1 April 1919 and 31 March 1923 during the War of Independence, the Truce Period and Civil War. Applicant also claimed unsuccessfully for service in the periods between 1 April 1917 and 31 March 1919 and between 31 March 1920 and 30 September 1923. Mary Anne-Treacy (née Meleady) had one brother Martin Meleady (MSP34REF18658) who was active with the IRA and served as Battalion Quartermaster.

Sean McGuinness (MSP34REF4688) described the Meleady family home, which was situated about 1.5 miles from Tullamore, County Offaly, as a “rendezvous for the founders of the IRA movement in North Offaly as well as for the officers, staff and men carrying on the fight from 1916-24”. In the 1918-1919 period, it is stated on file that the applicant Mary-Anne Treacy nursed 1916 Easter Rising veteran Peadar Bracken (MSP34REF25453) for up to two years.

As Captain of the Ballydaly Branch, 1 Battalion, 1 Offaly Brigade, Cumann na mBan, it is stated that the applicant took part in general Cumann na mBan activity in during the War of Independence (January 1919 – July 1921) including: sheltering IRA men on-the-run including Seamus Robinson, Sean Treacy (1D458),, Sean Hogan (MSP34REF375) and Dan Breen (MSP34REF171) for up to one month; making munitions; conveying arms; dispatch-work; bringing food to IRA prisoners in Maryborough Gaol (Portlaoise Prison), County Louth; filling bandoliers with fifty rounds ammunition for Volunteers before attack on Clara RIC Barracks (1920) and handing twenty guns over to Volunteers who were mobilised in expectation of ‘Black and Tan’ (RIC) reprisals following a shooting in Tullamore, County Offaly (1 November 1920).

A trained nurse, Mary-Anne Treacy tended to injured IRA Volunteers such as Bartly Byrne (MSP34REF18550); Sean Robbins for month following his escape from Mountjoy Jail, Dublin and applicant’s brother Martin Meleady (MSP34REF18658) who was injured during an attack on Clara Barracks, County Offaly (1920). The applicant’s brother Martin Meleady (MSP34REF18658) wrote in a reference statement [1940] that: “On one occasion, a dump was found near the house by a man who was not to be trusted. I had to get a car to take them away and by the time I got back, [my sister] had them taken to a safe place and helped Clarke, Brennan and myself to load them”. During the Truce period (July 1921 – June 1922), the applicant states helped provide food to an IRA training camp in Ballydaly, County Offaly for six months. Taking the anti-Treaty side in the Civil War (June 1922 – May 1923), the applicant states that she took part in similar activity. Mary-Anne Treacy married her husband in 1925.

File includes signed handwritten and typed statements regarding subject's service from Michael Kilroy (Undated); P. Egan (Undated); Bartly Byrne (1940); Michael Gavin (1940); James Clarke (1940); Sean Robbins (1940); Sean McGuinness (1940); Martin Meleady (Undated); Peadar Bracken (1940); Michael Killeavey [1940]; Michael Galvin [1940] and Mary J Poland (1941).

A Company was now formed in Ballinalee; - organisation was on a parish basis. After this section parades took place, and someone capable of giving instruction went round to the different section parades. There were no activities by the Volunteers during the McGuinness election. Either Seán MacEoin or Seán Connolly was 0/C of the Ballinalee Company. There was also the nucleus of a Battalion organisation existing. There were no arms at this period. Amongst the members were; Seán Sexton, Pat Farrell, Peter McGrath, Peter Collins, Ned Tynan, Seán and Michael Tracey, Joe Keenan, Michael MacEoin and later Jimmie MacEoin and several others.

[1917] Seán Connolly was Battalion O/C, Hugh Hourican was 0/C Ballinalee Company, I was the second in command, Michael Tracey 1st Lieutenant and I think Ned Tynan 2nd Lieutenant. M.F. Reynolds was 0/C Killoe Company, J.J. Brady - Ballinamuck, Peter Monaghan - Granard and Pat Langan - Edgeworthstown, with J.J. Killeen in charge of the Streete and Rathowen sections.

On the 1st November 1920 the Active Service or Flying Column was officially formed, and was commanded by Seán MacEojn. I think I was second iii command. The column consisted of Seán and Michael MacEoin, Seán Sexton, Frank Davis, The "Bun" McDowell, Michael Kenny, Hugh Hourican, Michael Mulligan, Larry Geraghty, Pat Cooke, Tom Brady, Michael Tracey, James Farrelly, John Moore, Paddy Lynch, Seán Lynch, M.F. Reynolds, Seán Duffy, J.J. Brady, Paddy Callaghan, Ned Tynan, Tom Early, Frank Gormley and Michael Gormley, Jack Hughes, Pat Finnegan, Barney Kilbride, James Sheeran, Frank Reilly, Frank Martin and some others.

[1920] Seán Tracey, 1st Lieutenant of Ballinalee Company and I were raiding for arms in the Ballinalee District.

Witness: Francis Davis, Captain IV and IRA, Longford, 1921

 

I was born in my grandfather's house, John Treacy's, Ballinlough, Ballinalee, County Longford, on the 30th day of September, 1893. My father, Andrew MacEoin, was the fourth eldest of a family of seven, five sons and two daughters. He was born in Molly, Aughnacliffe, County Longford, in the parish of Columbkille, and my mother, Katherine, was the youngest daughter of John Treacy's second marriage.

The MacEoin family had been blacksmiths for generations, having, at the same time, three little farms on the hill of Molly. The Treacys have had fairly large farms in the parish of Granard for several generations. I have never traced the ancestry on either side, but it suffices to say that the Treacys of the parish of Granard are a numerous clan to-day, while the MacEoins in Columbkille are just as numerous.

...Then I would repeat some of Tommy's story to Joe Dowling, and he would give me another version of the story, so I would have to come home to get the matter decided, and would tell my mother or father. They would smile, and a story would be told to me of some part either a Treacy or a MacEoin had taken in some of these struggles. One story in particular comes back vividly to me as I write, told me by my mother - that when the French landed at Killala and came on to Ballinamuck, some of the Treacy boys went to meet them and every day they were expected to pass victoriously through Bunlahy. A brother waiting at home so expecting every day, saw a body of horsemen riding into the village and ran out with his pike to meet them and welcome them, but, alas, they were English, and he was put to death at the big tree of Bunlahy. I have never questioned the accuracy of this story, and I don't know what truth there was in it, but it left me thinking that Tommy Kenny was the hero, and he continued to tell me what I now know to be fantastic stories of all the struggles in which he took part against the British.

...In 1917, a Circle of the I.R.B. was formed in Clonbroney, and consisted of Seán Connolly, Seán Duffy, Joe Keenan, Ned Tynan, Jimmy Tynan, Joe Tynan, John Treacy, Sonny Greer, James J.  Killeen, and myself. The first official inspection of that Girdle was by Tomás Ashe.

...[drying gelignite]...we got an oats kiln belonging to Cornelius Treacy [of Lislea, Longford?]...

...I reported to Collins, and I got a very severe cross-examination and interrogation as to the reasons for the shooting in the Granard hotel, and the necessity for it. He complained bitterly of the inadequacy of my reports, to which I replied that, if I undertook to fight, I did not undertake to write. He there and then decided to appoint a certain person as a sort of publicity manager or liaison officer. (All that I will say about this man's appointment was that, when he reported for duty, we fed him on bacon and eggs for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and that he succeeded in lasting only three days in the country. The billet in Charlie Treacy's, Aughagreagh, was too much for him).

...At Christmas of 1920, Seán Connolly and Bill Doherty of Roscommon (Commandanatnt of the Elphin Battalion) reported to me at our headquarters at Aughagreagh - Charlie Treacy's.

..."My dear friend: This may be the last opportunity I will get of writing to you. I want you to say good-bye to all my boys - Mick Heslin, Tom Reddington, Ned Cooney, M.F. Reynolds of Killoe, M. Mulligan, Paddy O'Callaghan, Sean Tracey, P.J. Finnigan, Jim Conway - I may quit; I cannot name them all ..."

Verse by Pádraig Ó Treasaigh, C.E, Mo/in Ra/itha, Laoighis [Mountrath Laois]:

 

We meet again, the master and the student

The one a sadder but a wiser man, the other still imprudent

But age and youth, have one same thought

That Erin's soul shall ne'er be bought.

Soon may her Freedom's star arise

And soon may be her foe's demise.

Then you and I from fetters free

Shall haste to Leix and Offaly.

But we together shall come again

As free, unfettered, unshackled men.

And then we'll fill and quaff the glass

That ours and Erin's dawn has come at last.

Cannon [Patrick] Tracey of Crookstown, Co. Cork

 

“However it is believed that Collins was expected at the house of Cannon [Patrick] Tracey of Crookstown during his last visit (to Cork). The reason for the visit, it is said, was to make contact with intermediaries (for peace)…A stop at Crookstown would explain the seemingly inexplicably circuitous Bael na mBlath route back from Cork from Bandon which Collins took.” Reference: Garda Hickey articles Limerick Weekly Echo 26/8/1972 to 16/9/1972.

“The area is so small that Cannon Tracey, who was also parish priest of the Bael na mBlath district, subsequently wrote: ‘It was my misfortune to be listening to the dreadful firing when Michael Collins was done to death.’” (22nd August 1922)

Coogan, Tim Pat (1990) Michael Collins a biography. Random Century, London. p.405-6, 412

 

14 September 1927 Typescript copy of a letter from P. Treacy P.P., to the editor, Cork Examiner, referring to a recent speech by Canon Cohalan in Bandon, reported in the newspaper. Treacy, the parish priest of the Béal na mBláth district, supports Cohalan’s contention that de Valera was in the area the day before the death of Collins.

‘In the morning of the day of the murder he was seen superintending the arrangements, and about mid-day motored back to Ballyvourney’.

Patrick Tracy of Monasterevin Co. Kildare and Dublin

 

“A network was set up so that Broy could pass messages to Collins undetected and vice versa. At Kingsbridge Station there was Pat Treacy, a relation of Broy’s.” In 1918, Broy became Michael Collins main inside man within the British Intelligence.

Ned Broy...his cousin, Patrick Tracy, a clerk at Kingsbridge railway station...

Dwyer, T. Ryle (2005) The Squad: And the Intelligence Operations of Michael Collins. Mercier Press, Dublin.

10 August 1926 Cork Examiner

Michael Collins...Pat Treacy, who was employed at Kingsbridge. Treacy used to bring Broy's messages to the rianra bans' Sep. Shortly after this, ...

 

...Then I thought of a Sinn Féiner who was married to a first cousin of mine. His name was Patrick Tracy and he was employed as a clerk at Kingsbridge railway terminus. I had a talk with Tracy, and he agreed to transfer any information I wanted transferred. He also agreed that O'Hanrahan's shop was ideal for the purpose.

The first items I reported, through Tracy, to O'Hanrahan's ware the projected arrests of Larry Ginnell and Joe WcDonagh. I told Tracy to tell O'Hanrahan that no

information was to come back to me. From that on, every secret and confidential document, police code, etc. That came to my hands was sent, through Tracy and O'Hanrahan, to the Volunteer headquarters. I knew nothing at all at this time about Michael Collins.

...I gave Tracy a copy of the complete list on the Wednesday forty-eight hours before the arrests took place. I met him in a public house in Benburb St. I got Tracy to copy the particulars in his handwriting, destroyed mine there and then, and instructed Tracy that, in the usual manner, he should get O'Hanrahan to copy them and destroy his own handwriting.

...The following morning was a Saturday and in the ordinary way, Tracy would go off duty at 1 p.m. I went to his house in the afternoon and found that, as had frequently happened in the past, he had taken advantage of his free railway travelling facilities to go to his people-in-law's place in Monasterevan.

... At Tracy's house, Millmount Avenue, Drumcondra...

...All this time I was, as detailed elsewhere, sending political police reports through O'Hanrahan's shop to the Irish Volunteers, and simultaneous with the request of Miss Smart another request came through O'Hanrahan's, per Greg Murphy and Pat Tracey, asking me if I would mind meeting Mick Collins and where would I like to meet him. I elected to meet Collins at the house of Mícheál Ó Foghludha, 5, Cabra Road, who meanwhile had been married to Miss Smart, and thus I had given an affirmative response to both parties. I duly met Michael Collins for the first time ever at 5, Cabra Road...

...Amongst the documents I sent via O'Hanrahan's shop, through the medium of Pat Tracey, was one giving the seniority list of detectives. Amongst them was Inspector Neil MacFeely. Tracey told me that when Harry O'Hanrahan came to that name he read it over again, saying: "Neil, Neil MacFeely. Why, the Gaelic League could not improve on that"...

WS Ref #: 1285 , Witness: Eamon Broy, IRA Intelligence Agent in British Police, Dublin Castle pp.21-3

 

...I remember that a man called Tracy brought information from Broy. When he came first we did not like the look of him and we did not think he was to be trusted. We never, however, had any justification for our suspicions and we never heard that he did anything against us or the Volunteers. But he did not impress us very favourably. I do not remember that we copied any messages he brought. Some of them were verbal, On one occasion be brought a short verbal message 'to-night was the night' and the leading Volunteers were not to sleep in their houses that night or they would be arrested but we were told that Mick Collins said, when the message was given him, that he had better information and that the raid would not take place that night. He asked whom did we get the information from but we would not tell him. We were  ight and the raid did take place that night and we afterwards heard that Mick Collins' digs were raided but he was not in them, he was somewhere nearby lookining on at the raid...

25 Oct 1920 Capture of Tempo Police Barracks by Fermanagh Brigade

...The arms &c. captured included:-

8 Lee Enfield Rifles.

3 Police Carbines - two without bolts which could not be found in the barrack).

3 Revolvers (all that could be found).

Two boxes of .303 ammunition and one box of revolver ammunition. One box of Veney Lights. Some small hand grenades. Handcuffs. Belts and a miscellaneous assortment of ammunition. Police day books and other documents.

The arms and ammunition were placed in a white Hupmobile car driven by Patrick Tracey of Clones [Monaghan born Cavan] (which was not of course intended to be used - the other car had failed) and the stuff was driven off following the route Tempo - Trasna - Gardiners Cross by Aughaneagh Church to Nutfield Cross and on back to Carntrane behind Comdt. Reilly's residence where it was dumped on the mountain on the land of James Fee. In the car were Comdts. Reilly and Smyth, Joe. Stavin (wounded in the hand at the entry to the barracks) and Michael Smyth Drumbrocas. Joseph Stavin was left at Fee's house for the night. The stuff was removed inside 48 hours to a Monaghan Battalion dump at Crossnagowan, and ultimately taken over by the Monaghan area. The stuff was lent by Comdt. Carney to Comdt. Matt Fitzpatrick but in spite of repeated efforts no portion of it was ever got back to the Fermanagh Brigade. Slavin the only casualty on our side apart from Comdt. Breen was taken from Fee's house on the following night across Lough Erne and safely attended to by a doctor in the Maguiresbridge Company area. Fee's house and land was raided by tans a few days later, and a servant boy named Burns (who was not a volunteer) was shot in the thigh.

Richard Treacy of Bishopswood, Co. Tipperary

 

...Now, at that class in Knockavilla, as time went on I got acquainted with several of the young men and women who played a great part in the struggle for freedom. There I got acquainted and became an intimate friend with Richard Treacy of Bishopswood, who became the Chairman of the Sinn Fein Club in the years that followed and was one of those who, in later years, defied the British Government by reading publicly the Proclamation of Dáil Eireann, and was imprisoned for a long time in Belfast Jail under very trying conditions, He was one of those who smashed through the roof of that jail when the fighting took place there and hoisted an improvised tricolour flag above the Belfast Jail at Crumlin Road.

Another man I met at this class was Michael Sheehan who, like Richard Treacy, has gone to his eternal rest. He was a workman. Treacy was a farmer, but Michael Sheehan and his brother, Sean, were working with one of the local land holders and in the years that followed, they took a very active part in the struggle.

...Before 1908 we had formed a Sinn Fein Club with Richard Treacy as President and Sean O'Dwyer as Secretary, and I think I filled the role of a sort of general orgariiser and was regarded, I must admit, as being the leader in anything that was being done

...some time in the years around 1907 or 1908, we had the honour of being visited by Sean MacDiarmada. He was either an organiser for the Dungannon Clubs or Sinn Fein, I am not sure which. He had called to Richard Treacy and he had some sort of ramshackle motorcar. I don't suppose there was any of those splendid cars there at the time. Treacy brought him along to me. I remember distinctly that I was cutting hay with a scythe in the meadow at the time when he arrived and we had a talk, and then my sister, later Mrs. Cussen, had an apple cake for tea and Sean MacDiarmada enjoyed it. very much. We were Treacy, myself and the others very much impressed by him... 

...We held Irish Volunteer recruiting meetings all over the area and these were addressed by P.C. O'Mahony who was County Centre of the I.R.B.; Seamus O'Neill, who was a professor in Rockwell College,Piaras MacCana, Richard Treacy, myself and some others. One of the greatest gatherings we had was some time after the division in the Irish Volunteers, when we called a big meeting for Knockavilla in the night time, and, headed by the Irish War Pipers band from Ballagh and a crowd of torch bearers,we led a force of a couple of hundred Volunteers and over a thousand of the general public to Knockavilla where the meeting was addressed in defiant terms by Father Matt Ryan, P.?., Richard Treacy and myself...

..After the great storm in Belfast in June things were quiet there. My sentence was due to expire on October 28th, 1918. On that morning I went around and said "slán agaibh" to Stack, McDcnagh, Blaghd, Richard Treacy, Boland, Robinson, Hickey, Phillips and many others...

I was sent to Clonmel Jail, where I spent a month, and afterwards to Belfast Jail. Tried at Victoria Barracks, Cork, with my companions John Hassett of Barnane, Co.

Robert (Bob) Treacy of Castlebar, Co. Mayo

 

Nov 21, 1914 (CT) The Irish Volunteers

Volunteer Tournament at Balla...Balla company under Command of Sergeant Tracey...

Apr 5, 1941 (CT) Obituary - Death of Mr. Robert J Treacy, Newtown Castlebar

...Mr. Robert Treacy (76)...served as a Regimental Sergeant Major in the Great War...Company Commander of the Irish volunteers 1913...training the Volunteers of Balla, Claremoris and Barneycarroll...The chief mourners were: Mrs. Treacy (widow), Michael, Joseph, Paddy and Sergt Robert Treacy, G.S. (sons); Hugh and Partick Hanlon (brothers-in-law)...Langan Staff Castlebar...

 

A company of the Irish National Volunteers was formed in Castlebar in 1913 which I joined; it was then run by a committee...In connection with the drilling of the Volunteers, we had four instructors all ex-N.C.O.s. of the Connaught Rangers but as they were all reservists they had to report to their unit when called up before the outbreak of the first world war in 1914. Two of them were outstanding as instructors their names were Tracy and Murtagh.

Witness: Michael McHugh, Commandant IRA, Mayo, 1921

My own local company - Balla - was exceptionally lucky in having an experienced sergeant of the Connaught Rangers as our instructor. His name was Tracey and he undoubtedly knew his job. He was a man of splendid physique and a decent type with a good national outlook. This man' a instruction to the Balla Company gave us a better groundwork than we otherwise would have had.

Witness: Richard Walsh, Member, IRB, 1908-21; Representative on IV Executive, 1917-21; Senior Officer, IRA Mayo, 1919-21

The Great War of 1914 came. I was then in my  fifteenth year. Local men began drilling. I did nod understand what it was all about but I joined the ranks and learned the military exercises. Our instructor was big Bob Treacy, ex-Sergeant Major of the Connaught Rangers. Later I knew I was a member of the Irish National Volunteers. After six months of this training it petered out and the younger men drifted away. Some, on the advice of the English so-called gentry who occupied the "big houses", joined the British Army.

He was arrested and tried in November 1920 At a District Court martial at Marlboro' Barracks, on possession at No.1 Millmount terrace, Drumcondra of a single round of revolver ammunition and with possession of a document containing statements the publication of which would be likely to cause disaffection, viz., "An Taglae" dated October 14th 1918. He declined to recognise the Court. His employer, had at one time occupied the room, testified that the ammunition may have been connected to a revolver he had surrender in 1916. In December 1920, he is reported as being an Irish prisoner in Carmarthen jail. In November 1921 he was back playing for the Faughs.

This autograph book was kept by a Republican in Mountjoy Gaol in 1917 and it contains the names of Republicans from Clare and elsewhere: here we see the name of Sean Treacy, Soloheadbeg, Co Tipperary, dated 21/10/17.

Clare Library http://www.clarelibrary.ie

 

 

 

Sean Treacy, (1895-1920) He was born 14 Feb 1895 in Soloheadbeg, Co. Tipperary, son of Denis Treacy and Bridget Allis. 

From an early age, Seán had nationalist leanings, and in his teens he joined the Irish Republican Brotherhood (IRB) which later evolved into the Irish Republican Army (IRA). In August 1917, Seán was arrested and spent two months in jail. The following year he was rearrested and spent four months in jail. Then on 21 January 1919, along with other members of the IRA's Third Tipperary Brigade, including Dan Breen, Seán took part in the Soloheadbeg ambush in which three members of the Royal Irish Constabulary, who were escorting a transportation of explosives, were waylaid and shot dead. This was the first military incident of the War of Independence. A few months later, in Co. Limerick, Seán was seriously wounded in a successful attempt to free an I.R.A. prisoner who was being escorted to jail. He recovered, and throughout the latter half of 1919 and most of 1920 he led attacks against the British in Dublin and Co. Tipperary. But on 14 October 1920, in Talbot St. in Dublin, he was recognised by a police detective and in the ensuing gunfight Seán was killed, in front of the 'Republican Outfitters' at No. 94 Talbot Street. A small bronze shield above the door commemorates the spot.

...I knew Maureen Power, who was high in the movement. She was at a meeting around Parnell Square attended by Sean Treacy shortly before he was shot by the Tans in November 1920 in Talbot Street. Collins was going full pelt with the language. Treacy jumped up; how dare you go on like that in front of a lady. It stopped him; he recoiled at once and apologised to both of them. A great fellow Treacy. Was it not amazing that there was a man — Horgan, was it, — on the spot there with a camera. It caught everything, and it caught Treacy wounding Francis Christian and shooting dead the Englishman Price...

Subject Information: File relates to Bridget Treacy's receipt of a Dependant's Allowance under the Army Pensions Act, 1923 in respect of the death of her son Sean Treacy killed in a gun battle with British forces on Talbot Street, Dublin on 14 October 1920. According to the material on file Sean Treacy was serving as Brigade Officer Commanding, South Tipperary Brigade IRA at the time of his death. It is also stated that his death occurred following an attempt by British forces to raid a meeting being held between Treacy and members of IRA GHQ and IRA Dublin Brigade GHQ in connection with a planned attempt to rescue Dan Breen from the Mater Hospital in Dublin. Dan Breen had been wounded the previous day when involved with Sean Treacy in an incident with British forces at the home of Professor Carolan in Drumcondra, Dublin as a result of which two members of the British forces and Professor Carolan were killed. It is further stated that along with Sean Treacy, members of the British forces were killed and wounded and three civilians also killed in the incident which led to Treacy's death. Bridget Treacy was awarded a Gratuity of £100 (one hundred pounds sterling) in [October] 1925 which she refused to accept. This award was then increased to £150 (one hundred and fifty pounds sterling) in [November] of that year but Bridget Treacy again refused to accept it. In March 1927 Bridget Treacy was awarded and accepted an allowance of £1 (one pound sterling) per week in [March] 1927 payable from 1 April 1922. File includes: original signed handwritten and copy typed correspondence between Bridget Treacy and the Department of Defence and the Army Finance Office regarding the processing of her application/claim; signed typed report dated 16 July 1925 from Captain [Donnchadh] O Súilleabháin, Office of the Director of Intelligence to Lieutenant Tully, Adjutant General's Branch G.H.Q. regarding the circumstances surrounding the death of Sean Tracy; reports dated 1 August and 9 November 1925 from the Chief Superintendent's Office, Tipperary Division, Gárda Síochána regarding the general circumstances and means of Bridget Treacy; representations on behalf pf Bridget Treacy from J. J. Walsh T.D., Minister for Posts and Telegraphs and Seamus Burke T.D., Minister for Local Government and Public Health (1925 - 1926); handwritten signed memo marked "Personal" from [] dated 26 January 1926 addressed to the Army Finance Officer regarding Bridget Treacy's application; typed copy letter/report dated 11 June 1926 from the Army Finance Officer addressed to "President" regarding Bridget Treacy's case stating that it has been found impossible to assess the claimant's case as one of total dependency under the Army Pensions Act, 1923 and stating the writers view that the award of a total dependency allowance would not meet the merits of the case which in the writer's view deserves the award of a substantial lump sum of not less than £500 (five hundred pounds sterling), recommending that the proposed inclusion in the estimates under the Amending Pension Bill of a sum for extra regulation expenditure might be used as a means of increasing gratuities without the need for specific provision within the Bill, and noting that Bridget Treacy's case may not be able to wait until such monies might be made available; two typed copy signed and unsigned letters dated 9 March 1927 from Thomas Gorman, Army Finance Officer to the Secretary, Department of Finance regarding the case of Bridget Treacy and enclosing typed copy report dated 4 March 1926 from Eoin Ua Dubhthaigh (Eoin O' Duffy) regarding a personal visit he had made to Bridget Treacy at her home, stating his findings as to her means and circumstances and reporting her comments and views as to her application; and material relating to Bridget Treacy's sister and brother.

She has been allowed the maximum gratuity under the Act [Army Pensions Act, 1923?] but he considers that the granting of a pension to her would be a more suitable alternative.

Record 3176 5/3/1926:      Letter to Banim from AW Waters, for the Chief of Collection, Irish Land Commission, 5 March 1926. He encloses a copy of the Fair Rent file relating to the holding of Mrs Bridget Treacy. `I am afraid it will not help you much beyond establishing the fact that Mrs. Treacy was not in occupation of the holding when the Fair Rent was fixed in 1892'.

Record 3177 4/3/1926:      Statement by General O Duffy, 4 March 1926, relating to the case of Mrs Treacy. When he was on inspection in Tipperary recently he called to see Mrs Treacy, the mother of Sean Treacy, killed in action in October 1920. She is in very bad circumstances. A once comfortable home is now derelict. Sean, the statement declares, was Mrs Treacy's only means of support following the death of her husband in 1918. `I believe Mrs Treacy is in debt, but she would not admit it. She, and her aged sister, who lives with her, have been under Doctor's care, suffering from neuritis, for a considerable time past. She would only admit that the Doctor and other friends in Tipperary town "were not hard on her". The poor woman has a certain amount of pride, and I had much difficulty in getting any particulars of her financial position. She preferred rather to talk of her son, who was her only child, to show me his photographs as a child, as an altar boy, and later on as a Volunteer in uniform, and she cherishes a copy-book in which he wrote extracts from the speeches of Emmett, Tone and Mitchell, when yet a boy, and to talk of his love and sufferings for Ireland… She is the ideal Irish mother and entertains no bitterness against anyone. She feels very keenly, however, that the offer of £150 from the Government belittled her son of whose bravery and patriotism she is so proud. She broke down when she said "others who are yet alive and well got large amounts because they looked for it. I thought the Government would do something decent for me, but they didn't mind the poor helpless widow who sacrificed her darling son"'. He believes the case is one of total dependency.

Record 3178 11/6/1926:    Minute to the President from the Army Finance Officer, 11 June 1926, relating to the case of Mrs Treacy. The minute states that it `has been found impossible to assess this lady's claim as one of total dependency under the Army Pensions Act of 1923'. The case could, he writes, only be dealt with by the payment of a substantial lump sum.

Record 3179 1/7/1926:      Extract from a letter of 1 July [1926] from Mrs Treacy. She writes that when General O Duffy visited her he arranged with her to accept the sum of £250 with a yearly gratuity of £50 which she considered reasonable. Since then she has heard no more.

Record 3180 5/7/1926:      Minute to the President from JJ Walshe, Department of Posts and Telegraphs, 5 July 1926, relating to the question of the payment of a gratuity to Mrs Treacy. He hopes, he writes `it will be possible to satisfy her'.

Record 3181 No date:       Statement, no date, relating to the case of Mrs Bridget Treacy. Mrs Treacy received £100 under the Army Pensions Act, 1923, in respect of the death of her son. This was subsequently raised to £150. `It is obvious that £150 does not represent adequate compensation in the present case and many people bitterly accuse the State of ungenerous treatment of the mother of Sean Treacy, a man who after yeoman service had finally given his life for his country'. The case was construed as one of partial dependency and nothing more can be done in the case in the absence of amending legislation [i.e that Mrs Treacy was only partially dependent on her son for the necessities of life]. The minute however, states that there `does appear to be a very definite element of total dependency.' The case against Mrs. Treacy is that she is in possession of a farm of land but `after all, does ownership of land necessarily imply the means of livelihood'.

Record 3182 30/12/1926: Minute from Cosgrave to D O'Hegarty, 30 December 1926, stating that he wants the Minister [for Defence] to reconsider the case of Mrs Treacy. He argues that the case of Mrs Treacy was one of total dependency on her son.

Record 3183 3/3/1927:      Minute to the President from Eoin O Duffy, 3 March 1927, stating that he was surprised to get a letter from Mrs Treacy stating that nothing has been done for her since he submitted his memorandum on the case almost a year ago. He quotes from her letter where she writes `you came to see me on behalf of our President, and I am looking forward all this time since in disappointment and humiliation which adds to the loss of my martyred and only child'. O Duffy writes `The case is, indeed, very exceptional; I know of none more so, and if the amount set out above [£250 or £50 yearly for her remaining years] cannot be paid from official funds it is the duty of us who know the circumstances to act promptly and save this very fine type of Irish mother from ending her days in distress and anxiety'.

Record 3184 3/1927:         Note by Paul Banim, March 1927, stating that the Board had awarded £1 per week to Mrs Treacy in respect of the death of her son and that £250 arrears are payable to her.

Record 3185 23/3/1927:    Minute to `A Pol' [Paul Banim] from Eoin O Duffy, 23 March 1927, thanking him for the draft for Mrs Treacy.

Record 3186 6/4/1927:      Minute to Paul Banim from Eoin O Duffy, stating that he gave the draft for £260.17.1 to Mrs Treacy. He also gave her a personal cheque for £50. A receipt is attached acknowledging the cheque. `She appeared to appreciate the latter as a special grant from the President more than the larger amount & asked as a special token of her gratitude to give the President the attached photo and memorial card of Sean…. The dear old lady is now happy perhaps for the first time since Sean's death'.

Record 3187 19/4/1927:    Letter to Cosgrave from B Treacy, 19 April 1927, thanking him for his consideration and kindness.

File relates to Stephen Treacy’s unsuccessful application for a military service pension. File also relates to the subject’s successful application for a Service Medal (1917-21) which was issued in October 1942. During the 1916 Easter Rising, the subject states that he carried ammunition to the Four Courts as a boy. Stephen Treacy claims that he joined G Company, 1 Battalion, Dublin Brigade, Irish Volunteers in February 1918 under the command of Captain P. McGuirk, Peadar Clancy (1D412) and Robert Oman (MSP34REF16645). During this period, the subject states that he guarded poll booths during the 1918 General Election and did guard duty at the Wolfe Tone commemoration concert in Mansion House when Sean McGarry (24SP5125) appeared on stage after his escape from Lincoln Jail, England. Further mentions that Pierce Beasley (Piaras Béaslaí) (24SP295) was arrested afterwards at the corner of College Street. On 6 December 1920, Stephen Treacy states that he was arrested and interned in Ballykinlar Camp, [County Down].

When he was released at the General Amnesty in December 1921, the subject states that the train carrying the prisoners was attacked by “Orangemen”. Further claims that his father was shot in the foot during the attacked, needed treatment in the Mater hospital, Dublin and was left a cripple for the rest of this life. Stephen Treacy states that he served in Ballykinlar in the parcels office staff and helped to get parcels through uncensored. Taking the anti-Treaty side in the Civil War (June 1922 – May 1923), the applicant states that he took part in the occupation of Hickey’s, Earl Street.

Address on 11th July 1921:

44 Upr Wellington Street

 

On the following morning the occupants of each line of huts were brought out on parade, numbered and checked and marched to Ballykinlar Railway Halt some half mile from the Camp proper. The men were fully provided for in the way of eatables and refreshments. The Camp supply of food was exhausted in view of the fact that it was closing down. After a delay of an hour or thereabout at Ballykinlar Railway Halt we entrained for Banbridge. The men were very jubilant and were singing and enjoying their new-found liberty. Just as the train was steaming into Banbridge, fire was opened on us from both. sides of the railway embankment, presumably by elements of the Orange Order who, apparently, had received advance information of our arrival and who were out to create as much disturbance as possible. Three of the occupants of the train were seriously wounded, one of whom, as a result of his wounds, was crippled for life and died in September 1953. This man whose name was Tracey subsequently took an action against the Northern Government and was awarded £1,000 compensation for his injury. There was no further incident on the journey from Banbridge where we had a tumultous reception from the local townspeople and various representatives of the local bodies and organisations. After a delay of about an hour we proceeded on our journey and arrived at Amiens Street at about 6.30 that evening where we were further acclaimed by thousands of the population.

...April [1917]...Peter Deloughry, T. C, Treasurer of St. Mary's Branch National Defense Fund, was arrested in Kilkenny under the Defense of the Realm Act. No charge was made against him. He was brought to the police barracks after his arrest and shortly after midnight was motored to the military barracks, where he was detained overnight. He was conveyed under strong military and police escort to the railway station on Saturday morning and removed to Dublin in the custody of the police. About 2 a. m., his house was visited by a body of police and a search made for arms or incriminating documents, but none was found. The residence of T. Treacy, Irish Volunteer Captain, Dean Street, also was visited by the police with a view to his arrest, but Mr. Treacy was not found. Both Deloughry and Treacy were amongst the Kilkenny prisoners arrested after Easter week, and were kept in detention for some months.

The writers conclude in the final article ‘If Mr O’Malley, without wounding other men had chosen to tell a “fantastic tale” (page 107) with himself as hero nobody would have bothered; but when he seeks a brighter halo on other men’s wounds and shouts “Windy!” at IRA tombstones it is time to protest’ (19 December 1936, 2pp).

Thomas Tracey/Treacy, from [Roscrea?] Tipperary. Casements Irish Brigade

 

I am researching Casements Irish Brigade, which was the attempt by Sir Roger Casement to raise a brigade from Irish Prisoners of War in Germany in WW1 and take them back to fight for Irish independence.
The attempt never worked, he only got 56 recruits, one of whom was Thomas Tracey, but I have little on the man. it comes down to:

"Casement just records him as a labourer before joining. Keogh (the sergeant major who ran the Irish Brigade) has him as Thomas Tracey, a big six footer from [Roscrea?] Tipperary. And records that Tracey supervised the Irishmen's mascot, a red-haired terrier called Rebel, who enjoyed catching the many rats in Zossen camp. I cannot find a service record nor a pension record. Nor a Medal card. One would expect him to be in Royal Irish Regt if he came from Tipperary."

Casement came back to Ireland just before the Easter Rising in 1916 with a boatload of rifles, but was caught and hanged. The Irish Brigade were left in Germany, and most just merged back into Irish life after the war
Any information on Thomas Tracey?

Kitty Cashin (Mrs. Gardiner), Ned Gardiner and Bill Treacy.jpg

 

The hide out at Poulacappal was an extraordinary one, the further end of a simple thatched cowbyre 30 feet long, with stone walls and a corrugated roof had been extended to create a small room, entered from inside the byre, through a tiny iron door, concealed by a tethered animal, a tiny door that swung closed under its own weight. Inside this small space, hardly thirteen feet by six, were bed boards in two tiers, with on one side, a hinged table. Overhead again in a cramped space under the thatch four men, maybe, might sleep. As many as fourteen all told could crowd in. The byre which had contained three cows, now had a jennet tethered in it; a jennet being the sort of animal likely to discourage intruders. The divil would ate ye, says Bill Treacy. Its roof and gable was thatched by Larry Madden, still alive in England. It was the brainchild of Jim Bryan, who died in 1977, and Ned Gardiner, Bill Treacy, Pat Egan and Jim Cashin, all local volunteers. Someone called it “Katmandu” and the name stuck to the present day (although it is no longer there, its material having been used for other purposes during World War Two). It sheltered at one time or another during the Civil War practically every leader, including De Valera and Lynch. We heard this night that De Valera was coming, says Bill Treacy, and bedad hadn’t Pat Egan, drowned wet and with the clothes sticking to him to get out of his bunk to accommodate him. Dev wasn’t aware of course. The hideout defied all efforts to locate it, efforts made by the Staters in the knowledge that it existed somewhere in the neighbourhood. It is nationalist country, a land of small holdings and little houses; not grouped like a village, yet not widely separated either. Situated west of the road from Callan to Clonmel, Katmandu itself was two miles along a by road, then one mile down a rutted lane, past the small Treacy farmhouse, and on a hundred yards into a damp field.

...Bill Treacy and Ned Gardiner, both of whom are alive and thriving near the spot, can recall the critical meeting as well as most of the events that led up to it. Mick Whelan was the caterer for those billeted with him. As he and his brother Johnny were bachelors, it was rough and ready. They lived in a thatched cottage with clay floor in the yard backing upon Katmandu. They were characters in their own way, Johnnie effecting to be simple. We found yer dump, said a raiding party one day. Begob i f ye did, said Johnny, it must be one of yer own. On another occasion, Tans raked over heaps of soil and rocks. I say sor, said Johnnie to the officer, there’s plenty more of those heaps at the back.

...The lucky ones however stayed at Cashin’s, across the field, at Minogue’s, Gardiner’s, Luttrell’s or O’Gorman’s. Egan’s, a substantial house, had the son Jim, killed by a Stater party. I was talking to him, said Bill, a few minutes before. Where are the rest of the lads, said he; I will go down to my own house for a bite to eat. He was shot without warning coming out. Ah, broke in Mrs. Gardiner (Kitty Cashin) at this point, weren’t there men in every generation who knew they would fail, but went out anyway. Mrs. Treacy (they use the Irish O Treasaigh frequently) washed for and fed Liam Lynch during an earlier stay. Bill spoke to him in the yard on the morning of his departure, six days before his death. Lynch, seemingly confident, confided to him where he was going. Bill Quirke he remembers too; an awful joker of a fella; do ye know, it being cold, didn’t he feck the top coat of Fr. Kerrigan the P.P. in Callan. Many of the party, including “the big tough man” Aiken, and Hyde came to Poulacappal after the March meeting in the Nier. They were away from it therefore only three weeks when they returned for the April 20th and 21st, conference.

...Bill Treacy made a model of Katmandu which he presented some years ago to the local museum in Tipperary town.

Tracey, boy of Dublin

 

[1916 Rising Dublin]  We were marched off to the Castle and paraded in front of the Clock Tower. Then we were marched out through Ship Street gate and along Thomas Street until we came to Richmond Barracks at Inchicore. Mere we were lined up in the square and searched. I met here a boy named Tracey from Lower Rutland Street, whose father was a sergeant in the Army, and he promised to bring home word that we were alive...

Treacy, boatman on the Shannon [Co. Roscommon?]

 

It was due only to the great strength of Treacy the boatmen combined with his river craft that we reached the opposite bank. The boat sank beneath the water as we jumped shore. On one occasion previous to this Treacy with others was engaged in a more unpleasant and gruesome excursion in the Shannon. The mission was not of their choosing but because it was the "Irish hirelings" (a spy) wish - who had got to take the extreme penalty - to be drowned in preference to meeting a soldier's death by shooting. As the spy slid over the edge of the boat in midstream Treacy, as if speaking to himself, said: "I will never die content until the Shannon is full of you".

Tracey [or Lacey], Barrack Street, Wexford Town

 

Once I went to a wake with other lads from our street to Barrack Street. A young man Tracey [maybe Lacey], who had taken the Republican side, was shot in an ambush between the Free State Army and the Republicans at Kyle Cross, on the Enniscorthy-Wexford road, during the Civil War. Barrack Street runs at right-angles to Parnell Street at the west end of the street.

Treacy, Killea, Co. Tipperary

 

...16.8.1920...At this stage Stapleton collapsed and we had to carry him a couple of miles until we reached his cousin's place, Tracey's in Killea. This was a fatiguing job as he was a big man, over 15 atone weight. Stapleton recovered in Tracey's and was able to join us at a meal there...

Witness: James Leahy, 8 McDonagh Street, Nenagh, Co. Tipperary.

Traceys, Streamstown, Co. Westmeath

 

...8? December 1920...We went on to Streamstown and called at Tracey's publichouse to get some refreshments. When we entered the place there was no one on the immediate premises. We could see the place was littered with half-empty glasses. After some time, a lady appeared and we asked her what had happened. She informed us that the place had been raided by the I.R.A. I asker her how many policemen had been at Streamstown when the train from Dublin arrived and she said two. We had seen at least eight on the road. It was pretty obvious that the place had been raided by the police in civilian attire posing as I.R.A. This was now, I knew, part of their activities to discredit the I.R.A. and. turn the People against them, and from further inquiries made, I know my assumption was correct.

Witness: Seumas O'Meara, 50, Connaught St., Athlone, Co. Westmeath.
