The Tracy
family name is not recorded in the Great Domesday Book of 1086AD. In Devon
there are recorded the placenames Bradford Tracy (Witheridge), Bovey Tracey,
Newton Tracey, Nymet Tracey (Bow) and Wynkele Tracy (Winkleigh). There are also early references to Tracies
in Newington Kent. |

CHAPTER XI. Those
Unidentified. The Conqueror and His Companions. by J.R. |
|
|
Planché, Somerset Herald. London: Tinsley
Brothers, 1874. |
|
|
TRACIE, "Sire
de," l. 13,605. |
|
|
|
The Norman family of
Tracy does not appear to have been of much importance in |
|
|
|
England before the reign
of Stephen, who bestowed upon Henry de Tracy the honour |
|
|
of Ben stable
(Barnstaple) in Devonshire; but the first of the name we hear of is |
|
|
Turgis, or Turgisins de Tracy; who with
William de la Ferté was defeated and driven |
|
|
out of Maine by Fulk le Rechin, Count of
Anjou, in 1073, and who was therefore in |
|
|
all probability the Sire de Tracy in the
army at Hastings. Tracy is in the |
|
|
|
neighbourhood of Vire; arrondissement of
Caen, and the ruins of a magnificent |
|
|
castle of the middle ages were and may still
be seen there. In 1082 a charter was |
|
|
subscribed at Tracy by a William de Traci
and his nephew Gilbert (Gallia Christina, |
|
|
xi. Instrum. p. 107), one or the other being
most likely the son of Turgis, and the |
|
|
father of Henry of Barnstaple. |
|
|
|
The name of Tracy is
principally known to the readers of English history from the |
|
|
unenviable notoriety of a William de Tracy,
one of those involved in the murderer of |
|
|
|
Thomas à Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury,
A.D. 1170; but his connection with the |
|
|
main line is obscure, as in his charter
granting to the Canons of Torre, in the county |
|
|
of Devon, all his lands at North
Chillingford, he writes himself William de Traci, |
|
|
|
son of Gervase de Courtenay, whose name I do
not find in the pedigree of that house. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Over the years, members
of this family came to Ireland. In later years it is difficult to |
|
|
distinguish them from the
native Irish families. Also there was a tendency among the |
|
|
native Irish families to
identify themselves with this family. The most infamous of these |
|
|
would be those connected
with the claim to the Tracy Peerage (Viscount of Rathcoole |
|
|
Dublin & Baronet of
the county of Limerick): |
