original name of Moydalgan in the civil parish of Dromara. |

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.

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.

vary. Thomas married Helen, Kate Riley (31 Dec 1883) and Mary Fauser (29 Jan

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. |
