Reasearching my Treacy/Tracey/Tracy Root's
Welcome to My TREACY'S OF TIPPERARY Message Board. I have started researching my Treacy Roots.
My Great GrandParent's were Daniel Treacy and Sera Sweeney. They married in the Roman Catholic Chapel of Solloghed in 1873.
Daniel's father's name was Patrick Treacy and was deceased at the time of thier marriage, Daniel lists his residence at the time as Solohead. Daniel worked for the Railway, He was the Gate keeper in Solohead.
Sera's Father's name was John Sweeney and she lists her residence as Doon. She also has a Katherine/Kate Sweeney as a witness (Maybe her sister)
Daniel & Sera had 12 children.
Children I know of are,Bridget, Daniel,John,Patsy,Mary, William, Catherine, Mickie and Sarah.
Catherine and Mary ( aka May) emigrated to Boston Mass.
William emigrated to Sydney Australia with a Michael Treacy, There he married and started his own Family.
Daniel,Sera their children Daniel and Sarah are buried in Clonmel. Mickie & Patsy are buried in Solohead. John is buried in Birr. Other than this I am at a dead end, I don't know when they died or whom they married.
I have located my Australian Treacy's and don't want to put their info up here as they are all still living.
All inquiries on the Treacy/Tracey/Tracy name are more than welcome.
Please post as much info as you can in your query. Hopefully we can share and make connections with other Treacy researchers.
I am using all variants of the name because My Grandmother and her Sister both spelled it differently.
GOOD LUCK AND THANKS!

A likely ancestor of mine, Hanora DOWNES, 22, servant of Kilmacow, daughter of John DOWNES, married John TRACY, 28, laborer of Knockfierna, son of John TRACY on 9/2/1876 (RC)- witnesses Catherine Ruddle and John White. Griffiths valuation lists a Margaret TRACY on plot 30d (Commons townland) to which John succeeds by 1873. 1901 census (#17 - Commons)shows John TREACY, 65, farm laborer, Hanora, 55, John, 27, farm laborer, Thomas, 25, farm laborer, Mary, 23 scholar, Michael, 16, scholar, Denis, 14, scholar. Land valuation show John succeeded by Hanora, then Thomas, then Rachel. 1911 census shows Hanora TREACY, 74, widow, Mary, 34, James, 31, laborer, Denis, 24, laborer.

If you have any info relating to this lineage, please email me at alriester@cox.net. Below is what I have found (and I admit there are many people much better/quicker at this research than me.) I have more info at home with more specific dates, etc. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
If you find your info somehow relates to mine, I also have pictures of some of the people from late 1800s to early 1900s.
Go raibh mile maith agat! (thank you!)
1. Patrick & Nancy Treacy - Ireland (Galloway?) -
2. Their son Michael Treacy married Catherine Francis (Maher) Treacy - I believe immigrated to US, settled in Louisville KY.
3. Michael/Catherine's children:
my grandmother, Anna Elizabeth Treacy (b. I think 1895) & her siblings are: Joseph, John (b. 1892) (who went by O'Treacy) Aloysius, James, Catherine, Kitty, Agnes. Believe they were all born in KY but could be wrong.
4. Then the family moves to Indiana - no idea why. Anna Elizabeth Treacy (my grandmother) married Louis Boniface Riester
5. Their children, John (my father), Mary, Florence
6. John (my father) married Louise Childers.
7. John and Louise had 4 children, of which I am their youngest.
