In Down, there is the Trassey River and Valley in the Mourne Mountains, named after the Traceys. (Place-Names of Northern Ireland vol. 3 p.173, 186)

 

There is also Killydressy (Ceathrú Dhreasach) in the civil parish of Witter OR Ballyphilip, Ards Peninsula.

 

Ballyclondresse is named in the Patent Rolls of James 1, which has been identified as the original name of Moydalgan in the civil parish of Dromara.

Ireland

In announcing the return of Mr. Tracy. we are happy in being enabled to inform our readers, that, in addition to the formation of Auxiliary Societies in the northern counties of Tyrone, Armagh, Down, and Autrim, which we have already announced, Mr. Tracy succeeded in establishing an Auxiliary Missionary Society in the south, for the county of Cork: the Committee of which comprizes some of the most respectable characters in the city, and other parts of the county; among whom are John Anderson, Esq. of Fermoy, 'and W. Roberts, Esq. of Charleville, Bankers; by either of whom subscriptions are received, as well as by the Treasurer, James M‘Mullen, Esq. of Cork.

Mr. Tracy, on his return, begs to express the grateful sense which he entertains ot' the kindness which he experienced in all parts of Ireland from the Clergy and Christians of every church, which has laid him and the Missionary Society under lasting obligations—A hope is indulged, that the union which has at length been formed, under circumstances so auspicious, between the churches in 'England, Scotland, and Ireland, for the propagation of our common faith among the hundreds of millions of the heathen world, will be productive of no inconsiderable benefit to the united empire, as well as the world at. Large.

1846 A picturesque handbook to Carlingford Bay 

Newry...There is a new church, still unfinished inside, on the Down- shire Road, a pretty little Gothic building. There is a Convent, of the order of Poor Clares, in High Street, attached to which is a neat chapel. The Convent was established in 1830, under the present Reverend Superioress, Mrs. Tracey ; and the following year two schools were opened, under the auspices and management of this religious community, which have since been placed under the Board of National Education, who grant £30 a year to two mistresses; but the Religious impart nearly all the instruction. The average attendance of children at these schools is 300 daily, hut sometimes it exceeds 400. The course of instruction comprises everything useful or needful to females in the humble and middle ranks of life, and fits them to discharge the social and religious duties of their state. It is delightful to witness the unwearied and assiduous kindness of these ladies to " teach the young idea how to shoot," and train them from their earliest childhood in the observances of a genuine piety. The proficiency of the children is remarkable, in reading, writing, geography, arithmetic, &c. The Convent of Poor Clares consists of a community of fifteen choir nuns and four professed lay sisters, under the control of a superioress: chaplain, the Rev. Mr. O'Neill. These ladies have bidden an unregretful adieu to the vanities of life, and dedicated their days to the service of God and of the poor. And here, in this religious seclusion, their thoughts are turned heavenward, and their only earthly cares are for those whom the world too little cares for—the hungry, the naked, the orphan, the uninstructed poor.

I am looking for information and living descendants of Daniel and Mary Tracy of Schuyler Falls. Daniel was born on 1/29/1795 in County Down, Ireland and his wife, Mary Hanna Tracy was born on 6/10/1792 in County Down, Ireland. They had the following children: Catherine born 1818, married Francis McCadden, Maragaret born in 1820 and married Charles Kean, William born in 1823 married Ellen Jorden and Alice Tracy was born in May 31, 1825 in Grand Isle, Vermont. and married Thomas Manas / McManus of Plattsburgh, New York. They had five children: Mary, Daniel (m. Bridget Kenney in 1879 in Chicago), Matthew, Alice and Thomas (b. 1855 - 1861 in NY records vary. Thomas married Helen, Kate Riley (31 Dec 1883) and Mary Fauser (29 Jan 1890). The McManus family is listed in the 1860 Federal Census for Schuyler Falls, Clinton County and in the 1870 Census for Center Twp., Lake Co., IN. Mary Fauser is my great grandmother. Please contact me if you have any additional information or photos of this family. Unfortunately this is all I know and I don't have any pictures.

The Tracy Family Compendium

Michael T. Tracy

CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, 15 May 2017 - 276 pages

The family surname of Tracy has a lineage going back to the year of 1795 when Daniel Tracy was born in Kilkeel, County Down in present day Northern Ireland. There are several recorded spellings of the surname including Tracy, Tracey and Treacy. The Gaelic spelling of the surname is O'Treasaigh which translates as "The descendant of the war-like one." However, it is English in its earliest recorded origins dating back to the followers of William, The Conqueror, in 1066. The current branch of the surname dates to Daniel Tracy (1795-1876) who left Ireland in late 1821 and settled with his wife, Mary Hanna and two young children in Grand Isle, Vermont later relocating to Plattsburgh, Clinton County, New York. This is the most complete and comprehensive book written to date on this family. Over 40 years of information was researched and now is assembled on the history of this family covering 7 generations spanning over two hundred years. This work included biographies and photographs of Tracy forebears as well as encompassing the present day living descendants. These are the records of our ancestors and it is to their memories that this work is lovingly dedicated for all time.
